King Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 P.S : Wait for the video to upload, it takes a while to show.

Looks like the wicket keeper really enjoyed stumping Miandad out. Miandad was really good against spinners but he looked out of sorts there. Siva used to turn the ball a mile and had a great wrong un. Whatever brought his career to a halt at an early age? Link to comment
Mandrake Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Ravi..you might like to read Gavaskar's "One Day Wonders"...great read about the 1985 B&H tournament.... Link to comment
King Posted June 12, 2007 Author Share Posted June 12, 2007 Thanks will do. I watch the 1985 ones once every year and I will have to say that was one top class team. The fielding, catching, bowling and batting was really top class for that time. No wonder India won the 1983 world cup followed by the 1985 B&H tourney. Link to comment
kumble_rocks Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Remember this tournament vividly. The first time I watched cricket on color tv. Link to comment
Mandrake Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 India beat Pak again in the Rothman's cup in Sharjah following this tournament despite being bowled out for 125.They went on to beat the Aussies to win the tournament.Probably the best run of ODI tournament wins. Link to comment
Ram Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Siva used to turn the ball a mile and had a great wrong un. Whatever brought his career to a halt at an early age? I heard alcoholism and celebrity-madness... these are just rumours though... Link to comment
ludhianvi Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 never seen this before. Oh man, Shiva seemed to have a great action and looks like he should have been good. Awesome stuff Thanks Link to comment
