This player was praying for the defeat of Team India

    However, in the last 5 overs, the players of Team India were breathless.
  • Then Dhruv Jurel was praying for Africa's victory. While talking to BCCI TV, he said that “When I was also saying that India will win, South Africa was looking ahead in winning. Then I started saying that Africa will win and the opposite happened and India won the match.”
  • Jurel used a spell to pray for Africa's victory in order to make India win.

The match's fate was turned in the last over

  • In the final match, the Indian team had to defend 16 runs.
