Ashutosh sent the first ball of the over from Unadkat's hand straight across the boundary line.

Ashutosh spoiled Unadkat's rhythm

What seemed like a six on the first ball was that Unadkat forgot his line and length. The Hyderabad bowler bowled the next two balls wide. Now 21 runs were needed from 5 balls. Jaydev bowled the second legal ball of the over and that too was sent into the stands by Ashutosh. Now there was panic in the Hyderabad camp. Punjab was hopeful of victory. Pat Cummins was busy talking to his bowler.
