One Day Cricket Redefined!

Sunday, March 12, 2006

No Words, Absolutely No Words would justify what kept me glued to my seats today… No Cricket fan should have missed the most wonderful ODI Cricket ever played… 872 runs scored on a single day!! Many Many records broken… Which captain would have dreamt of losing after scoring 165 of 105 balls in his team’s total of 434?

South Africa and Australia showed what separates the champions from mortals… excelling under pressure… couldn’t have imagined any team which started the chase with a positive attitude when the opponents have put in a world record total… all credits to Gibbs, Smith, Boucher and every other member in the SA team who thrived hard to show that Australia can be beaten even in the most trying of circumstances!

Credits to Lee and Bracken’s composure too for the fight… The memories of 1999 world cup semifinals were fresh when I watched today and was hoping it wasn’t the same result and phew what a match!

    The Proteas are known to be chokers.So, I thought these guyz would fizzle out at the last moment.And when a wicket fell when they were 2 runs short of victory, I was thinking Australians could still pull it off.Boy, what a chase.!Folks who didn't watch the chase missed somthing in life today!
