Cricket was on another level between 1983 to 1999.This was the golden era of cricket, everything was highly beautiful. Great players, great competition, enthusiastic crowd,Amazing colorful jerseys of all teams, day night matches. In those days after watching matches people used to play cricket.

Ricky Ponting batting with a cap against Ambrose!!!!

Michael Bevan my favourite ODI batsman, he once again stood for his team along with Stuart Law and helped Australia to reach a competitive total. And then it was Warnie who won this game for his team from nowhere when it was looking almost impossible for Aus to win. What a great spinner Shane Warne was, a fighter and a match winner !

165 for 2 chasing 208. Still not able to win.

Steve Waugh’s peach of a delivery to get rid of Lara was possibly the best delivery of that World Cup !! I think he should have bowled more in One dayers..

Jab last me 5 balls par 6 need thi.

That was a cracking delivery by Ice man to get the Prince out.

45:12

I feel kind of bad for the folks who were settling in for a night of 'True Confessions'

The Richie Richardson shot that hit the poor umpire turned out to be decisive also (was heading for the boundary).. could have changed the match result and possibly tournament also. Not easy for SL to pinch hit Ambrose out of the park.

Now commercial cricket has ruined that natural taste of ODI

Gotta love the clip of Vinod Kambli at the beginning pretending that the abandoning of the semi final against Sri Lanka was preventing a potential Indian victory. "c'mon umpire we're nearly half way there, we've still got Prasad to come, and the crowd is really starting to warm up!"

Aussies are fighters. They won 1999 semi-final in a low scoring match as in 1996. Just look at ponting dive to save boundary, they were committed to win

Serves the Aussie top order right for expecting a cricket ball to bounce when pitched short of a length....Terrible pitch, but still good control from WI bowlers but that ball was skidding through.

full match... Plz

Mark Waugh was unlucky. First ball had great bounce and carry, the next one had neither and skidded and jagged back. Literally no one would have survived that ball - especially after the ball before...

No carl Hooper.

Ye wala match dekha tha guys...

Thanks to the umpire, 2.of the last 4 wickets were clearly notout. Venakata raghavan was a pathetic umpire those times later joined by others later.

Great bowelings fieldings bating of wistindes like Richardson but unfortunately Courtney Walsh dull lazy work wistindes cricket team loss second semi final 1996world cup Courtney Walsh dull lazy work Courtney Walsh was waste elements in wistindes cricket team
