"Five Wicket Maiden" that is probably a first in international cricket as Australia lost five wickets, four of them in a row, in the final over of their allotted twenty overs, in their match against Pakistan in the 2010 ICC World Twenty20 Group A match.

Mohammad Aamer was the bowler on the occasion 23/3 from four wickets was how Aamer's tally looked at the end, but after the first two wickets were his, the next two was near identical run outs trying to sneak a run off the bye. When the final wicket fell, Australia had made 191.

While it remains to be seen if Pakistan can successfully chase down the target, Shane Watson's heroics were soon eclipsed by this bizarre over!
