Yashasvi Jaiswal is known for his big hitting skills and has played some swashbuckling knocks over the years. However, hitting under the Super Over pressure is a different ball game and young Jaiswal found it out in a hard way in the Super Over of third India-Afghanistan T20I.

India needed two runs to win off the final ball in the first Super Over and Yashasvi Jaiswal was on strike as Azmatullah Omarzai came charging in for the final delivery. Afghanistan had posted 16 runs in the Super Over and it was Rohit who took the equation down to two needed off 1 ball with some lusty blows into the crowd.

Yashasvi Jaiswal would have backed himself to get two runs off the final ball but Yashasvi Jaiswal in a bid to hit one out of the ground, lost his shape and failed to timed it. It was a length delivery on off, a slot delivery but the ball went off the toe end of his blade to the keeper and India could manage just a single as the match went into the Double Super Over.


India eventually won the game in the second Super Over but it was drama at its peak and this game would surely go down as one of the greatest T20Is in the history of the game.
