Pakistan's fighter is born [IMG]Guests cannot see images and links in the messages. Please register to forum by clicking Register Here to see images.[/IMG] OR Login to view. Considered as one of the finest batsmen of his generation, Javed Miandad was popularly known for his antics on the field. He had once waved his bat threateningly at Dennis Lillee in Perth in 1983, jumped up and down mimicking Indian wicketkeeper Kiran More's appeal in the 1992 World Cup, and hit a last-ball six off Chetan Sharma helping Pakistan to an epic win in the 1986 Australasia Cup - a match that catapulted his team to great heights thereafter. He was the only other man apart from England's Herbert Sutcliffe, whose Test average never dropped below 50 and was the youngest to hit a double century (he has six in total). At 22, he was also Pakistan's youngest captain but his captaincy stint did not bode well with the other players. Despite his obvious problems with authority, he was widely regarded as the greatest batsman Pakistan ever produced. He was the first man to feature in six cricket World Cups.

A slow torture [IMG]Guests cannot see images and links in the messages. Please register to forum by clicking Register Here to see images.[/IMG] OR Login to view. In only the second ever World Cup in cricket history, England bowled out Canada for a measly 45, taking 41 overs to do so. Canada's Franklyn Davis was the only player to reach double figures and England's Chris Old registered stunning figures of 10-5-8-4. Not only did the hosts secured a thumping eight-wicket victory but they also achieved the target with more than 46 overs to spare. Stay Tuned to SATHUNTERS FORUM You will be amazed........ |

Birth of Maurice Odumbe [IMG]Guests cannot see images and links in the messages. Please register to forum by clicking Register Here to see images.[/IMG] OR Login to view. Maurice Odumbe, one of Kenya's greatest captain was born on this day. Under his leadership, Kenya defeated West Indies by 73 runs in the 1996 World Cup - one of the greatest upsets in cricket history. Odumbe won the Man of the Match for that game for his stunning bowling figures of 10-3-15-3. Kenya also went on to qualify for the semi-finals of the 2003 World Cup when he was the skipper. Unfortunately, his illustrious career had a sad end when he was handed a five-year ban for his relations with a bookie. Stay Tuned to SATHUNTERS FORUM You will be amazed........ |

Pakistan defeated New Zealand in the first semi-final of the 1999 World Cup by a comfortable margin of 9 wickets. New Zealand, who had opted to bat first, could only manage a modest 241. Shoaib Akhtar bowled intelligently and registered figures of 10-0-55-3, which included crucial wickets of Nathan Astle, Stephen Fleming and Chris Harris. The Asian team confidently chased down the total in 48 overs, on back of a brilliant unbeaten ton from Saeed Anwar. Stay Tuned to SATHUNTERS FORUM You will be amazed........ |
