Lungi Ngidi unleashed the beast in him and wreaked havoc on India's batting line-up with a match-winning spell to help South Africa beat India by five wickets in their T20 World Cup clash on Sunday (October 30). Ngidi, who replaced Tabraiz Shamsi in the playing XI, dismissed four of the India batters which included the wickets of rival captain Rohit Sharma, opener KL Rahul, Kohli and Hardik Pandya.&nbsp;"Virat had hit me for two boundaries, so he was trying to attack me a bit. Bowling that (short) ball, I probably knew he would go for it. Could have gone anywhere, for six or in hand, and luckily, it went by my side," Ngidi told reporters in the mixed zone when asked about his favourite dismissal.&nbsp;
