People say that Twenty20 is the game of batsmans, and not the Bowlers. But India Pakistan Match proved it wrong.
Indian batsmans did not give a good start to India. They did not respect the pitch conditions. And paid for it. Mohammad Asif bowled so well to keep the indian batsmans restricted. But in the end, India managed to score 141 runs which was a competitive score, thanks to Uthappa, Dhoni, Pathan. Robin really showed the confidence in very bad conditions.
Pakistan inning started and showed some consistancy. But again the Pitch and Indian Bowlers did not prove good for the Pak Batsmans. At one stage, it seemed that india won. But 19th over from Agarkar was turning point. Last over - 12 runs from 6 balls. Sreesanath bowled so well in such a pressure, it helped india to tie the match.
And here comes the creation of history. Bowled Out Rule.
Indian nominees for bowled out - Sehwag, Bhajji, Uthappa, Sreesanath, Pathan. And the rest is history. Thanks god, i was one of the lucky persons to watch those moments.
And this Bowled out rule proved, 20T is not a game of only Batsmans, Bowlers have a big role to play!
