Sehwag on Batting. First Ball hit for 4 Runs. Now Sehwag on 98 and Team needs 3 Runs off 2 Balls. Sehwag hits 2nd ball and took 3 Runs but 2nd Run was short. So, Umpire awarded only 2 Runs and that completes Sehwag's 100 runs. Now Sachin on strike and Team needs 1 Run off 1 Ball. Sachin Hits for 6 and completes his 100 and Team won the match.
