3 instances when no-balls have hurt the Indian team

#1 India vs Pakistan, Champions Trophy Final at The Oval, London 2017

The Indian bowler's insatiable love for no-balls was on display again when the defending champions took on their arch-rivals Pakistan in the Final of the Champions Trophy in 2017, the culprit this time being Jasprit Bumrah. India was playing in their fourth major title Final in six years, and after a thumping 124-run win over Pakistan in the league stage, they entered the summit clash as prime contenders.

But their first mistake - the error that opened the floodgates - was Bumrah's overstepping in the fourth over to give a reprieve to rookie opener Fakhar Zaman (114), who had edged the ball to MS Dhoni when he was at three. Zaman added a further 111 to his tally to give Pakistan a platform on which their middle order built to swell the lead to 338-4 in 50 overs.

The Indian bowlers added two more no-balls to their tally, and such errors coupled with an insipid batting display, that saw the 'Men in Blue' reduced to 58-5 in the first fifteen overs ensured that the trophy had been handed over.

Result: Pakistan won by 180 runs.
