Occasion: West Indies vs England, 2nd T20I, Bridgetown 2014

Equation: 37 off 22 balls

Coming off a win in the first T20I, the Windies were in danger of losing the second encounter when Tim Bresnan scalped wicket off successive balls leaving the equation down to 37 off 22 balls when in walked skipper Darren Sammy.

Sammy sliced the first ball of the 18th over, bowled by Jade Dernbach, towards the third-man region to pick up a boundary. While Dernbach came back valiantly with the second ball being a yorker, he missed his length by millimetres during the latter part of the over allowing Sammy to nail a six between deep mid-wicket and long-on reducing the equation down to 17 of the remaining two overs.

The hero of the 17th over Bresnan wasn't spared either as the West Indian clobbered the fast bowler for two sixes, one over long-off and the other over the long-on region. With just two runs needed, Sammy closed out the game with a ferocious square-cut to bring up one of the most extraordinary wins in T20 cricket.
