A video of the last over drama in the second T20 between Australia and Sri Lanka at Melbourne.
After rain stopped play, Australia's revised total was 122 and they came agonizingly close to achieve that.
They needed 17 runs from the last over when Sri Lankan skipper Mahela Jayawardene threw the ball to Thisara Perera.
Captain George Bailey scored two runs off the first ball but was dismissed in the second, as the visitors needed 15 from the last four deliveries.
Perera then bowled a waist high no-ball which fetched a total of three runs and an extra delivery for the Australians.
With 12 get from three deliveries, Glenn Maxwell hit two back-to-back fours and kept Australia in the game.
With four required off one delivery, he failed to connect and was beaten as Sri Lanka won by 2 runs.
