Australia-Pakistan is one of the most epic matches to have taken place in the World T20. It was a crucial 2nd semi-final of the 2010 edition. Pakistan, after being put into bat by the Aussies, piled on 191/6 in 20 overs with the help of half-centuries from Kamran Akmal (50 from 34 balls) and Umar Akmal (56 from 35 balls). Australia began badly, losing Warner in the 1st over to Mohammad Amir. The Australians weren’t able to set off at any stage and the game was sliding out of their favor. But, Mike Hussey, who was batting brilliantly from one end, kept the hopes alive. The game came down to 18 runs from the last six balls for the Australians to win. Ajmal was the man with the ball in his hand while Mr. Cricket held the strike. Hussey was unbothered of the wily off-spinner as he crunched 3 sixes and a four, helping his side complete a dramatic chase with one ball to spare.
