Heinrich Klaasen kept his nerves calm as he pulled off a run out off the last ball to help South Africa beat a spirited Nepal side in ICC T20 World Cup 2024 by just one run on Saturday, June 15. With two runs needed to win from one ball, Ottneil Baartman bowled a bouncer and Jha, on strike, attempted to guide it past the wicketkeeper. Instead, he missed the ball which then was collected by Quinton de Kock. Both Jha and Sompal Kami ran hard to complete the run but the ball hit the former's back and went towards cover when Klaasen grabbed it and flicked it towards the stumps at the non-striker's end. Jha was a bit late in reaching his crease and fell short by the barest of margins as Nepal lost by just one run. Nepal Fan Spotted Crying in the Stands After Rohit Paudel and Co Lose to South Africa by Just One Run in ICC T20 World Cup 2024.
