Gautam Gambhir remember India's World T20 victory nine years ago
India, under the leadership of a young skipper MS Dhoni, defeated arch-rival Pakistan by five runs in the final to clinch the trophy.
Remembering the moment, Indian batsman Gautam Gambhir, who had scored 75 runs in the match, tweeted: "On this day, 9 years ago. We eclipsed the impossible against all odds! #Throwback."
"Glad to have contributed to one of our most historic wins- 75 (54)! #Throwback," he said.
In the last edition of the tournament this year, India failed to reach the final. West Indies won the title for the second time by beating England.
