Watch Dwayne Bravo pulls off a stunner to get rid of Ajinkya Rahane

The first Twenty20 International between India and West Indies in Florida turned out to be a nail-biter as the game went to the final delivery and the game was poised evenly. West Indies posted a massive total of 245 runs in their 20 overs and India had a mountain to climb in the second innings. ALSO READ: KL Rahul becomes 3rd Indian to score T20I hundred: Twitter explodes

Indian openers started the proceedings with some controlled aggression and Ajinkya Rahane looked composed on seven. On the final delivery of the third over from Andre Russell, which was pitched short, Rahane played ducked a bit and played an upper cut towards third man in an attempt to earn a priceless boundary. He got the timing right but the ball remained in air for a long time, which probably gave an extra second for Dwayne Bravo to cover that extra yard at third man. He charged in and dived towards his left side to cup a beauty with both the hands. READ MORE: Twitterati troll Stuart Binny after he leaks 5 sixes in an over to centurion Evin Lewis

Initially, it looked like a boundary but Bravo’s incredible athleticism turned it into an opportunity. Rahane was dismissed and Bravo had all the reasons to celebrate. West Indies won the game by a solitary run and it was once again Bravo, who defended eight runs in the final over.
