The 11th match of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup Americas Region Qualifier saw Brazil Women lock horns against Canada Women at Naucalpan in Mexico. The low-scoring match witnessed one of the greatest collapse ever seen in the game's history as Canada Women went from requiring 3 runs to win from six balls to eventually losing the game by 1 run. The Brazilian women's team stunned their Canadian counterparts as they managed to pick five wickets in the final over of the match to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. 

Brazil effected two run outs in the final over while Laura Cardoso picked three wickets to help her side register an unimaginable win. Batting first, Brazil Women were dismissed for 48/7 in 17 overs. The Canadians didn't find batting easy either as they tumbled in the last over, losing five wickets for just 1 run. Here's the video of the incredible final over that saw Brazil Women pick five wickets in five consecutive balls against Canada Women.
