If you watched the match you would know where the match turned. India just made 20 runs more which made the difference. Pakistan was well in course to reach the target but the equation turned too large when Akmal left and Afridi though promising could not use his head. Had he tried a ground boundary rather going over the top still the game was in their slot.
Ajmal over was the key when India made most runs and Yuvi made 3 sixes from 3 deliveries he faced. I wonder had he not changed the side with Dhoni from first ball single, he might have added 2 more sixes in that over.
