India regained their status as the T20 cricket World Cup champions. In the final match, the Men in Blue defeated South Africa by 7 runs.

Perhaps the highlight of the entire match happened in the last over.

The South African national team had a theoretical chance to save the game. David Miller could have given his partners hope - he batted for 6. However, Suryakumar Yadav showed his catching skills: the Indian player not only prevented his opponent from scoring 4, but also knocked him out altogether, making a wicket.

Social media has already declared this highlight as one of the best defensive plays in history. User X (ex-Twitter) Daman Rangoola believes that this action may have single-handedly won India the tournament.

"Pay attention to where Suryakumar Yadav’s feet are the whole time - if the ball, and the player with the ball in his hand cross the boundary that you can see here - South Africa gets 6 runs (points - it’s 6 if it goes straight out, 4 if it rolls/bounces out). Yadav first of all gets to it before it goes out, then he tosses it in the air to re-gain his balance and momentum, gets back in field and secures the catch. Unbelievable presence of mind," the user wrote.

Earlier we reported that PSV announced the purchase of an injured Barcelona player and explained what the deal is all about.
