Roy Fredericks' attacking century from the top gave South America a brilliant start to their innings. Later, skipper Clive Lloyd also chipped in with a century of his own to help his team secure a first-innings lead of 12.

Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar buried a South American attack overdependent on Croft and Gibbs with an unbeaten 194-run stand. Asia's innings was brought to a close rather controversially with the score at 369/2, with Tendulkar just six short of what could have been his third century in as many matches. South America were set a target of 358 to chase in a little over four sessions.

Brilliant performance! What a victory and what an overall team effort. Bringing in Mohammad at the top paid off. He played really well in both the innings. This looks a much better and balanced XI.

The European batsmen were put to the test by a wicket that turned out to be a lot greener than expected. They quite sensibly grinded their way to 367, with Ian Botham top-scoring with an uncharacteristic 87 off 184 balls.

In contrast to their opponents, the Africans failed to adapt and were bowled out for 180. Shaun Pollock's resilient 27 helped them narrowly avoid the follow-on.

It's an excellent comeback by us after conceding the first inngs lead.
Our bowlers bowled brilliantly in the second inngs to defend 243.

Losing Akram is a big blow. Hopefully he will be fully fit for the next one.

Fantastic victory on this type of pitch. 300+ on a green pitch in 1st innings really helped our cause and then bowling out them before 200 was just too good. Botham starred with highest scorer and highest wicket taker in both the innings. I hope we keep our performances just like this.

We will be going Same.

South America were bundled out for 162 after winning the toss and opting to bat first. Frank Worrell was the wrecker-in-chief with his under-rated medium pace that fetched him 4 wickets in a 9-over spell.

Emulating Worrell, Rohan Kanhai also performed better in his secondary role as a part-time wicket-keeper with 5 catches in North America's first innings. Centuries from George Headley and Vivian Richards had helped them get a big lead of 213 by then.

Colin Bland played an innings of brilliance against an unbelievably strong Oceanian bowling attack. He was the sole half-centurion in Africa's second innings, and helped them set Oceania a target of 245.

Don Bradman top-scored with 53 this time, but looked far from his usual domineering best. John Traicos and Mike Procter picked three apiece to dismantle Oceania's batting lineup, while Henry Olonga held up one end quite brilliantly. The Africans emerged victorious by 44 runs.

Asia were intent of settling for another draw and Rahul Dravid hung around for long enough to seal the fate of the match. They were bowled out for 326, setting Europe an improbable 241 to chase with less than 30 overs remaining in the match.
