Hyderabad: The inaugural season of the T20 World Cup was played in 2007 and India was crowned as Champions under the leadership of MS Dhoni. The team defeated Pakistan in the final. But, a clash between the two teams was played earlier in the tournament and the historic clash saw India emerging triumphant.
How The Match Unfolded
The match ended in a tie and so the result was to be decided by a bowl-out. Virender Sehwag bowled first for India and hit the stumps. Yasir Arafat took an attempt for Pakistan next but he failed to take the correct aim.
Harbhajan Singh then shattered the timber for India while Umar Gul faltered in taking aim at the stumps. Robin Uthappa then took the next turn and hit the stumps successfully. For Pakistan, Shahid Afridi came with the last attempt and came up with a wayward shot.
