India have made it to a pretty good score of 270/4 in their 50 overs. The platform was laid down by Sachin Tendulkar & Mohammad Azharuddin adding 59 runs for the 2nd wicket partnership scoring 54 & 26 respectively. With 2 quick wickets, it was Dravid-Dada pair that added 92 runs for the 4th wicket with Dravid getting out in an unfortunate way getting caught down the leg-side on 44. Sourav Ganguly batted right till the end scoring 73*(92). Ajay Jadeja helped India to a great finish as he scored 43*(37).

Pakistan bowlers did keep it tight but failed to get enough wickets as India piled on 270/4 in a Final match that adds to the pressure. Chasing such a score can be really tricky at times. However, their chase in the 2nd Final proves that they are more than capable of chasing down this score. Abdul Razzaq was the pick of the bowlers as he took 2/36 off his 10 overs getting the important wicket of Rahul Dravid off the last ball of his spell. Saqlain Mushtaq got Sachin but he went expensive conceding 59 runs in his 10 overs. Shoaib Akhtar did not complete his quota as he went wicketless in his 8 overs conceding 39 runs. Waqar Younis kept it tight as he conceded 48 runs and picked up Azharuddin's wicket. Wasim Akram and Shahid Afridi went over 6 runs per over which can prove to be the difference in the match!

After almost 20 overs and 100 runs, Pakistan finally have their 4th! A wayward delivery from Abdul Razzaq had Rahul Dravid caught down the leg-side on 44. India look good for a 260-odd score. Pakistan need wickets to stop the run flow.

India have made it to a pretty good score of 270/4 in their 50 overs. The platform was laid down by Sachin Tendulkar & Mohammad Azharuddin adding 59 runs for the 2nd wicket partnership scoring 54 & 26 respectively. With 2 quick wickets, it was Dravid-Dada pair that added 92 runs for the 4th wicket with Dravid getting out in an unfortunate way getting caught down the leg-side on 44. Sourav Ganguly batted right till the end scoring 73*(92). Ajay Jadeja helped India to a great finish as he scored 43*(37).

Pakistan bowlers did keep it tight but failed to get enough wickets as India piled on 270/4 in a Final match that adds to the pressure. Chasing such a score can be really tricky at times. However, their chase in the 2nd Final proves that they are more than capable of chasing down this score. Abdul Razzaq was the pick of the bowlers as he took 2/36 off his 10 overs getting the important wicket of Rahul Dravid off the last ball of his spell. Saqlain Mushtaq got Sachin but he went expensive conceding 59 runs in his 10 overs. Shoaib Akhtar did not complete his quota as he went wicketless in his 8 overs conceding 39 runs. Waqar Younis kept it tight as he conceded 48 runs and picked up Azharuddin's wicket. Wasim Akram and Shahid Afridi went over 6 runs per over which can prove to be the difference in the match!

End of a brilliant innings from Yousuf Youhana who scored 81(104). He was looking so comfortable out in the middle until he played that shot. Nevertheless he has put Pakistan in a very strong position in this match now. Will Pakistan run away with this game or will India take this opportunity to come back into this one?

Harbhajan Singh gets Inzamam ul Haq at a critical stage in the match. Is there a twist in the tale?

Abdul Razzaq once again fails to finish the innings as he gets out to Robin Singh on 33(37)..... Pakistan need 21 runs from 4 overs!!

Code:

Another wicket lost in that over as Wasim Akram tries to guide the ball down to third man facing Bhajji and in the process gets caught behind by Dravid..... 16 runs required from 18 balls!!!

Code:
47.1  R Singh to Mushtaq, one run, That was a very risky single.
47.2  R Singh to Khan, one run, That is very well run by Saqlain Mushtaq   
47.3  R Singh to Mushtaq, one run, One more to the total
47.4  R Singh to Khan, no run, A lot of movement being extracted by R Singh      
47.5  R Singh to Khan, three runs, Great work by Azharuddin saved a certain boundary
47.6  R Singh to Mushtaq, no run, Defensively played by Saqlain Mushtaq

1645619290423.png
He hit that very well did Moin Khan but just did not have enough legs to go down the boundary! Pakistan have to score 10 runs in 2 overs now!!

Code:
48.1  H Singh to Khan, no run, Harbhajan Singh is getting the ball to turn ferociously
48.2  H Singh to Khan, no run, Moin Khan was completely deceived
48.3  H Singh to Khan, no run, Harbhajan Singh is getting the ball to turn ferociously
48.4  H Singh to Khan, no run, Defensively played by Moin Khan
48.5  H Singh to Khan, FOUR, Who needs Bradman when weve got Moin Khan
48.6  H Singh to Khan, no run, Harbhajan Singh is getting the ball to turn ferociously

         End of over 49  (4 runs)

He really gave it everything did Moin Khan to get that boundary in the previous over. Interestingly India bowled Bhajji in the 49th over which would mean Tendulkar will be bowling the last over.

Code:
49.1  Tendulkar to Mushtaq, no run, The umpire turns down that ridiculous appeal from Rahul Dravid

1645620700145.png
Huge appeal on the very first delivery but Umpire turns that one down!
Code:
49.2  Tendulkar to Mushtaq, one run, One more to the total

1645621256922.png
Doesn't look pleased to give away that single does Tendulkar....... 5 from 4 now!
Code:
49.3  Tendulkar to Khan, one run, That is very well run by Saqlain Mushtaq

1645621477134.png
Looks to change the field after conceding single on consecutive deliveries
Code:
49.4  Tendulkar to Mushtaq, no run, Saqlain Mushtaq missed that one by a mile
49.5  Tendulkar to Mushtaq, wide, Sachin Tendulkar bowling a very wayward one
49.5  Tendulkar to Mushtaq, one run, Great cooperation between Saqlain Mushtaq and Moin Khan


1645622012404.png
He would be disappointed to bowl that wide but somehow keeps the runs down as Pakistan need to score 2 off the last ball!!!

Code:
49.6  Tendulkar to Khan.........................

What an end to an India-Pakistan game! It felt like Pakistan were cruising at one stage with Inzamam & Yousuf at the crease but India managed to get rid of both of them on 52 & 81 respectively. Abdul Razzaq gave a good support to the lower order as he scored 33 while Moin Khan scored an unbeaten 11. Ijaz Ahmed had also got off to a good start scoring 35 before he got out. Shahid Afridi scored a duck.

Indian bowlers kept it tight early in the innings which helped them take the game deep and till the last over. Ajit Agarkar got 1/40 while Srinath got 1/43 off their 10 overs respectively. Harbhajan Singh & Anil Kumble got 2 wickets each while Robin Singh also got a wicket. Sachin Tendulkar bowled the last over defending just 6 runs and he ended up conceding just 5 as the 3rd Final ends in a Tie!

What a match between two evenly balanced sides and a tie is probably the fairest result
