M Shahrukh Khan smashed a dramatic last ball six to help Tamil Nadu defend the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy T20 title with a thrilling four-wicket win over Karnataka in the summit clash here on Monday.


Needing 16 runs off the last over bowled by Prateek Jain, power-hitter Khan kept his cool under pressure to clobber the final delivery over deep-square leg to take TN to 153 for 6 and seal a famous win.


The burly right-hander remained not out on 33 (15 balls, 1 four, 3 sixes) while R Sai Kishore was six not out. Tamil Nadu thus avenged their heart-breaking one-run loss to Karnataka in the 2019 final.


Earlier, Karnataka rode on some aggressive batting by Abhinav Manohar (46, 37 balls, 4X4, 2X6), Praveen Dubey (33, 25 balls, 3X4, 1X6) and J Suchith (18, 7 balls, 1X4, 1X6) to post 151-7.
