1. Javed Miandad(Sharjah,1986) v India:

This is easily one of the most popular last ball finishes that have gotten ingrained in the hearts of passionate Pakistani fans even today. Pakistan were facing world champs India in the final of the Austral-Asia cup. All of Pakistan’s batsmen withered away and there was no one to offer support or complement Javed Miandad who stood there fighting a lone battle. While everyone thought that Miandad would go down fighting valiantly, he showed great skill and brilliance to stay there right till the end. The match boiled down to a last over finish. Pakistan needed 4 runs to win off the last ball. Chetan Sharma bowled a low full toss and it got whacked by Miandad’s willow for a six in the square leg region. The crowd erupted and got sent into a state of euphoria. It really is one of the most popular last ball finishes of all time.
