T20 cricket is a format in which one ball is enough to decide the victory or loss of a team. One such match was played on this day i.e. March 23, 2016, in the T20 World Cup between India and Bangladesh, which was won by the Indian team by 1 run off the last ball. The hero of India's victory was captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni. He showed the pace of the cheetah to defeat Bangladeshi batsman Mustafizur Rahman on the last ball. He had robbed the whole gathering. Dhoni ran towards the wicket by not throwing the ball straight at the stumps and did his job by scattering the bails before the Bangladesh batsman could get inside the crease and Bangladesh's desire to win the first T20 against India remained unfulfilled.

With this victory, India was saved from losing early in the T20 World Cup being held at home. Now tell you what happened in that great match between India and Bangladesh? How did the match keep changing in the last over and how did the Indian team win the lost game?

No Indian batsman played except Suresh Raina 30 and Virat Kohli 24. Chasing the target of 147 runs, the wickets of the Bangladesh team also kept falling at regular intervals. But the target was not very big. Bangladesh had scored 136 runs by the 19th over for the loss of 6 wickets. Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahmudullah were at the crease. Mahmudullah made 17 in 20 balls. It seemed that Bangladesh would show India the way out of the T20 World Cup like the 2007 ODI World Cup. But Dhoni did not let this happen. Bangladesh needed 11 runs to win in the last 6 balls. Dhoni handed the ball to Hardik Pandya. Mahmudullah was on strike. He took 1 run off the first ball. Mushfiqur raised the heartbeats of Indian fans by hitting 2 fours in the next 2 balls.
