10 World Cup T20 deliveries that will always be remembered

#9 Ian Butler to Abdur Rehman (New Zealand vs. Pakistan, Barbados, 2010)

Pakistan needed 2 to win off the last ball with Abdur Rehman on strike. Man-of-the-Match Ian Butler bowled just the perfect delivery angling it in; Rehman tried to sneak a single with a loft that only ended down the throat of deep square leg fielder Martin Guptill. All watchers had their hearts in their mouths when they saw the ball in the air, but Guptill did no mistake.

It was Pakistan who proceeded to the semis on the basis of net run-rate, though, and not New Zealand.
