Axar Patel turned out to be the savior for the Indian team during the IND Vs SA T20 World Cup 2024 Final. It was one of the best innings you will ever see from a batsman in a final.
He came to bat when India was in huge trouble at 34/3. He rebuilt the innings alongside Virat Kohli and got the Men In Blues back in the game. It was a sensational innings but had a nightmare ending.
It looks like the Indian team will always have a run out in a major tournament that will break everyone’s heart. A run-out that seemed impossible and was not possible in normal circumstances.
Axar On Fire
It was a sensational cameo by Axar which let Kohli settle down on the pitch so that he could swing in the later stages of the inning. Axar hit 4 dazzling sixes that left everyone in awe.
But it was his dismissal that left the whole crowd silent as Quinton De Kock pulled off an unreal runout. Indian fans were even celebrating an overthrow boundary before the third umpire stated it as out.
A mistime shot by Kohli was collected by De Kock comfortably and Axar never thought he would throw. A slight delay and carlessness in addition to a sensational throw by De Kock resulted in one of the worst dismissals of the tournament.
