Memorable Pakistan v India one-day matches
CENTURION (South Africa): Memorable one-day matches between Pakistan and India who clash in the World Cup Group A match at SuperSport Park here on Saturday:
March 22, 1985, Sharjah, UAE: The first match between the two countries on neutral ground in Sharjah ended in a sensational 38-run win for India. India successfully defended a paltry 125 as Pakistan stumbled for 87.
April 18, 1986, Sharjah, UAE: Needing four to win off the last ball, Javed Miandad hit a six over mid-wicket off Indian seamer Chetan Sharma to pull off a one-wicket win for Pakistan. Chasing the Indian target of 246, Miandad held the innings together to remain unbeaten on 116.
October 25, 1991, Sharjah, UAE: Pakistan’s Aquib Javed claimed 7-31, including a hat-trick to remove Ravi Shastri, Mohammad Azharuddin and Sachin Tendulkar to help his team win by 72 runs in the Champions Trophy. India, who were forced to bat in near darkness, did not play in Sharjah for two years in protest.
March 9, 1996, Bangalore, India: Venkatesh Prasad and Anil Kumble took three wickets apiece to help India win the World Cup quarter-final by 39 runs. India made 287-8 with Navjot Sidhu making 93 and Ajay Jadeja 45 off 25 balls. Pakistan stumbled after a rollicking start to finish on 248-9. Pakistani captain Wasim Akram, who pulled out of the match at the last moment due to a shoulder injury, received death threats after the loss and his Lahore home was stoned.
January 18, 1998, Dhaka, Bangladesh: India chased a then world record of 315 runs to win the best-of-three Independence Cup final. Centuries from Saeed Anwar and Ijaz Ahmed in Pakistan’s innings were followed by Sourav Ganguly’s 124 as India won in near darkness through a last-over boundary by Hrishikesh Kanitkar.
June 3, 2000, Dhaka, Bangladesh: The last match between the two teams, part of the Asia Cup, saw Pakistan win by 44 runs. Yousuf Youhana’s last ball six gave him a century and lifted Pakistan to 295-7 from 50 overs. India were bowled out for 251 despite Jadeja’s 93 that included eight boundaries and four sixes. —AFP
