In 2026 in Ahmedabad South Africa and Afghanistan delivered a T20 World Cup classic that delivered a spectacular match that was to be decided by a rare Super Over in the Narendra Modi stadium. It was the third time in the history of T20I and the first in the history of a T20 World Cup, and left fans in jawdropping amazement because of the sheer drama of the incident.
The game became uncontrollable during the last over of the Afghanistan pursuit. The requirement was 13 runs with one wicket in hand, which Noor Ahmad was defeated following the first ball of Kagiso Rabada and celebrating was referred when a no-ball was called. A six by Noor was enough to rekindle dreams but a run-out by Fazalhaq Farooqi shortly afterwards evened the playing field and brought about Super Over.
In the first Super Over, Afghanistan scored 17, and Azmatullah Omarzai gave theAfghanistan team its punch. It was met by a match-winning dramatic performance by South Africa, when Tristan Stubbs hit a last-ball six to give the game a second Super Over.
The Proteas came to the fore again to increase the pressure and they scored 23 runs with the help of gigantic sixes by Stubbs and David Miller. The response of Afghanistan was also fearless. When three consecutive sixes left Rahmanullah Gurbaz alive in the equation, he needed five on the last ball, Keshav Maharaj held back his nerves and Gurbaz was caught in the deep.
South Africa won the game by four dramatic runs, sealing a second consecutive win in one of the most dramatic games in the history of the T20 World Cup.
