Hey everyone,
We understand we did mistake in the video, and here are those mistakes 👉
1) India went to 1987 world cup's semi final, we forgot to mention this.
2) Ajay jadeja in bowling unit part, that was actually meant to be mentioned properly in editing but we forgot to.
3) jayasuriya had 3 wickets instead of 4 (we mentioned 4 wickets)
apart from these, we don't think there was any particular mistake from our end. We accept our mistake and will try best to improve in the future videos and make our videos more better!
Thanks.
Thanks for mentioning this. Great content; subscribed!
LOL. The Biggest mistake is that you guys thought that it was a Fixed match.
1) Sri Lanka didn't beat Australia during the group stage. Australia refused to travel to Sri Lanka due to political turmoil, that's why Sri Lanka was awarded the match.
While making a video on such a big issue, you should be more careful about the information & data you are sharing.
2) Another thing is the way you put India's performance in the group stage it looked like a juggernaut. The truth is India only beat Kenya, Zimbabwe & West Indies in the group stage, the same West Indies who got beaten by Kenya & that too with the help of Sachin's catch being dropped by WI keeper at very early stage of the innings.
So in reality, the Indian Campaign was never too good in that World Cup. Yes, beating arch rival Pakistan in the quarter finals ( especially which was a least expected win keeping in mind India's record against Pakistan in ODIs during 80s & early 90s ) at Bangalore made everyone's expectations higher.
Even during the group stage the match against Australia was mostly played by Sachin who scored 90 out of team total of 143 before being stumped while chasing wide delivery from Mark Waugh. There are more missing analyses like India was never a good chaser prior to Greg Chappell's era & very poor during the 90s often even squandering chases from good position.
Azhar made so much money when he was a captain through Dubai connection. He just exploit the respect and love given by indians
i think azhar was one of the revolutionary captains of india.in 90s india continuously won in odi matches ,random series ,asia cups,only World cup dissapointment nd big mistakes made ajju a fixer or haters but ajju was lethal batsman those times
Ganguly replaced kambli forever and almost won 2003 WC ..but ganguly's boys yuvi , harbhajan , sehwag , zaheer won 2011 WC....

Back in the days India was so heavily depended on Sachin... Sachin gya toh team v gya.... But from 98/1 to 128/8 is unacceptable...
Just like right now. Rohit and Kohli gaya to Match bhi gaya.. (If you don't believe watch Ind vs Aus 3rd ODI.) They couldn't even score 300 in a batting friendly pitch.. When they were like 183/2.

I am 200% sure Azhar, jadeja, mongia and few others were involved in fixing. And I am also sure that many big players knew about it but didn't speak up which is wrong thing. They should have told about this to the team management.

They should have been told about that to team management and it's easier to say than doing....main ye fixing bahut si documentary dekha hoon last 2 din main according to cbi and x manager bahut saare player and coach management umpire sab involve the infact ek sachin hi aisa insaan tha jiss par 100% bharosa kiya jaa sakta tha...sachin ko pta tha fixing ho rahi h oe tendulkar ne cbi main statement bhi diya tha Azhar ke against par aage aana itna aasan nhi tha bcs koi bhi trustable nhi tha even kapil dev ka bhi naam involve tha toh agar koi batata bhi toh kissey?? Plus mafia uss time peak par tha kai player pressure main aa kar mafia ke fixing kiye the agar aapke players management par bharosa nhi kar sakte upar se mafia ka darr toh aage aa kar kaise koi kch bolta?? The best thing at that time was try to win match yourself and ruin bookies plans that's what sachin did...he won many matches single handly

Loved the Part when he explained how Vinod Kambli's Career ended and what were the allegations against him and how things unfolded with Vinod Kambli
It was very unfortunate. Kambli had a Lara-like batswing. 3 players who suffered a lot post this world cup were Manjrekakar,Prabhakar and Kambli. Prabhakar was finished,Manjrekar wasn't among runs from last 2 years but Kambli was dropped purely on the basis of reasons which weren't related to his form.
He was dropped from test team as well in a similar fashion. Ok he had problems while playing bouncers but would you drop someone for such a weakness after just one or two bad games?? Someone like raina played for more than 10 Years and never learnt how to tackle bouncers and Kambli was dropped after a few failures. Post 1996 world cup, he was always given chance to bat at no.5 or 6, unlike his usual no.3. Everybody had a conspiracy theory to just destroy him back in the day. It is unimaginable as to what discrimination he had to face in the indian dressing room during his playing days...
He is having the same plight even today, pathetic cricketers like akash Chopra,vivek Razdan are given contracts by news channels and star cricket but not someone like Kambli, who has scored 3000 international runs... remember he held the record of fastest to 1000 test runs uptil Harry Brook broke it in Feb 2023(30 years).

Yes true..
That entire WC feels like a sham.
But SL captain wanted to beat Australia in the final and they have done that. SL deserves that world cup. India was just focusing on 2 or 3 dangerous players. They didn't recognise aravinda, arjuna, mahanama and gurusinha
So what,sri lanka beaten australia badly in the final
bhhai aus ko final me hara diye yar unhe
Cant forget the night i was 9 years old and watching it with my family and not only kambli cried but every Indian too, i didnt knew what was fixing back then but when i recently watched the full match again it looked very evident that except few players most of them are looking obvious to loose their wicket easily and it not a good watch even now 😢

1996 to be honest, India deserve nahi karti thi. Because puri team only Sachin and Kumble pe dependant thi. Example Australia and Sri Lanka ke match me dikh gaya. Plus us time Eden Gardens me koi bhi toss jeetkar second batting nahi karta tha, because itni turning wicket thi, ki batting second wahan pe suicide mana jata tha. To Azhar ka faisla Eden Gardens me fielding karna toss jeetkar, bilkul senseless tha.
Agreed but in continuation to your part that team India was not champion material India got too scared after the league game against Sri Lanka . Uss match mein Sanath Jayasuriya ne Aag Laga rakha tha despite chasing 273 then and after a masterclass 137 by Sachin Tendulkar Jayasuriya was remembered of his carnage and to bat second was Azhar's call as everyone knew we all didn't have death bowling attack but yes Azhar and team misread the wicket totally
@@arnold3138Azhar was also on what india depended on
@@LolYtAfk As good a player he was i wouldn't want to remember him as someone who brought India so close to the WC because of his antics
Agreed. SL was a far better and more complete team, and they won when it was crucial.
Infact they won every game in that World Cup
Exactly bro, but this idiot started the video with HM AANKH MOOND KE WORLD CUP JEET SKTE THE 😂 and ended with lines like hm sachin pe dependent the, sri lanka table toppers thi, hm group stages mein hin 2 match haar gaye the 😂😂... I mean what and idiotic style of storytelling
In my whole life I don’t remember a day I cried like when India got knocked out by Sri Lankans at Eden Gardens on that day. It was a Wednesday and as long as Sachin was there India had hope. But eventually the inevitable happened. Kambli cried and the whole India cried. I was only 8 years old but the pain was so real. There were so many news reports which criticised Azhar for taking bowling despite winning the toss.
It was a poetic justice that we won the final in 2011 against Sri Lankans though I got nothing against them now. It took 15 years and four World Cups to heal the wound cut deep down in the hearts of many Indians.
❤
My father told about the match. Not just kolkata whole India was stunned. And Kolkata situation at the time was like a riot could have break out at that devastating loss of India
I saw Vinod Kambli crying, unke aasu dekh kar mere bhi aasu nikal gaye thei. I was child then.

90 era we were depending on sachin , Ajruddin
After 90 we were depending on sachin , sehwag , Ganguly

Nope 🙅 azhar was match fixer along with jadeja
96 WC was the rise of Sachin. Untill then Sachin out = India out didn't exist. I saw this match live. 251 was a great score back in those days.
Finally found another quality content creator.

4:09 And one man changed that ufffff
You forgot the legendary off spinner ashish Kapoor in the bowling unit .. he was the unstoppable force behind indias reach to semis
The way Azhar got out it definitely looks like deliberate. Match fixing
Azharuddin purely and surely apne liye khelta tha aur sochta tha. Woh ab tak ka ik lota captain hai jisne 3 world cups mein captaincy kari par World Cup fir bhi na jeet saka.
Kyuki wo deshdrohi tha.. Uske liye Sirf paisa imp tha.

Sachin out to TV band
Even in 2003 Final against Aus i left to play cricket just when he got out in 1st over.
Do not forget India was thrashed by SL in the league stage and hence they went defensive. If the whole world believes Sachin they go by his book (autobiography) where he clearly mentions that the team misread the wicket. Also in one of the recent interviews even people like V Prasad, Sanjay Manjrekar said it was unanimous decision to chase only Sidhu in the team meeting opined to bat first. But the team went with opinion on the basis of majority. Blunders do happen. This was one of those! End of the story. That match wasn't fixed. One can see the spin vision of the second innings example Sanjay Manjrekar getting bowled to a widishly pitched delivery took a sharp turn and came in to knock the stumps. I think even Jadeja got out similarly. It was a pathetic wicket. Not a world cup wicket at all. If Kolkata crowd was angry that night, they should have been angry with the curator. Not the players.
Why Indian management didn't follow the curator.Azar could've seriously followed it.Why Azar was so inconsistent in his form after 1993 when he was made Indian captain.Even selectors at that time were not serious in choice of captainship.After Sachin's recommended Dhoni to be captain dhoni took good steps and won.Anyway past is past now it's the time to win wc for the 3rd time,we have a great captain Rohit now.
@@creativeblog399 the team met before the toss. Apart from Sidhu all said bowl first (including legendary Sachin Tendulkar).
On the Kapil Sharma show , Ajay Jadeja said Sidhu was the only person in the team who suggested batting first .
In the previous India Sri Lanka match , Jayasuriya and other SL batters had knocked out the Indian bowling . So the Indian team strategy was to bowl first , get the openers out and restrict SL to an achievable target .
Everything went according to plan ....
Until Sachin got out .
And it was all downhill from there .
We lost , bad luck . Now we must discard conspiracy theories and move on .
Azhar throwed his wicket

Lambs outside. There is no such thing as deserving and undeserving team. One which plays better cricket on the given day wins.

@@abhishekchaube766 tell that to the Australian team from 96-06
@@arnold3138 so how did they lose to Sri Lanka?
As a 13y old I was perplexed why we chose to field - it had a universal reputation of favouring teams bowling second. Given what transpired with Azhar thereafter I can’t give him the benefit of doubt on this one…
On the Kapil Sharma show , Ajay Jadeja informed that Navjot Sidhu was the only person suggesting to bat first , every one else wanted to bat second .
The reason behind this was that in the previous India Sri Lanka match , Jayasuriya and Kaluwitharna had blown away the Indian bowlers .
So in the semi-final , Indian team decided to bowl first , take out the Sri Lankan top order and restrict them to an achievable score .
The plan was working
Jayasuriya 1
Kaluwitharna 0
Gurusinha 1
Final score
Sri Lanka 251
Until Tendulkar got out on 65
And everything just fell apart .
How can we blame the pitch when it is a Home ground ?
it hurts because it was the World Cup semifinal , but sometimes things happen beyond your control .
And Srilanka eventually won the World Cup by batting 2nd
Match fixed
Anyone can review how azharuddin gave a return catch those who watched it "Live"
we all felt it was fixed match

Sri Lanka was a way better side than India in that world cup. I understand the collapse of Indian batting was very out of the normal, but lets face it the pressure and unstable batting along with tough wicket may have caused. Sri Lanka were the best and deserved to win with us. We cannot blame the decision of fielding or batting first. Sri Lanka had a way horrible start than us.

Even if India would have won that match by choosing to bat first, Australia would have won in the final. Only Sri Lanka had the capability of beating Australia in that world cup. Victory was well deserved by Sri Lanka
Australia was an average team..not invincible..

Indian team was actually never that good before ganguly era
if Azharuddin was match fixer, than was wc 2003 final was Fixed, how come India didn't win wc 2007 ?
The dark days of Indian cricket. A time period of faulty bowling and fielding, backed by poor (or doubtful?) captaincy. Things started changing after Dada became captain...
Your narration is really appreciable.
Multiple things….Winning the toss and fielding first….Getting 4 wickets but then SL getting 250+…Sachin out and the match was lost….
If toss can be a reason to call match fixed, same will go to 2013. All expected India to bat first. T20 World Cup we won, had bowling decision of dhoni failed, all would have called it fixed.
I was actually wondering, India was 120/8 and the batters were still batting. Even Kambli was batting, even though only 10 runs not out. What if the match continued? Would Kambli have scored a good knock and carried the team?
No
Probability is .001%
But it’s a game anything can happen
match was fixed by BCCI but Azahr and Kambli was ScapreGoat
This match was the very known expamle for the statement Sachin gaya tho match gaya.
This match I will recall my entire life . I stared watching cricket from this match .
We lost 1996 WC, 2003 WC, 2017 CT, 2023 WC just because of misreading the wicket is ridiculous. 1996 and 2023 WC were just not acceptable given that they were in our home turf and opponent read conditions better than the Indian Team.
I seen that match and that scene in which kambliji came back with tears in his eyes came in front of my eyes…
Bhai editing konse software pe krte o?

good content btw 👍
The pitch was dug up for the opening Ceremony of the world cup and laid fresh. It wasn't tested and India's bad luck, we had to bat second one that pitch.

In 1987, India reached semi finals.
And then comes dada and changed indian cricket ❤❤❤
I think this match was heavily influenced by the India - Srilanka league match and some of the other matches where Srilanka was literally chasing down anything by those days standards . Decision to bat first on the turning wicket backfired . However couldn't blame the team management as that was the impact Srilankans created with Run chases in the that tournament . We all knew India were to bat if we would have won the toss . So no surprise decision there .
Australia didn’t play Sri Lanka in the group stage. Australia declined to visit Lanka. Points were awarded.
and we beat Australia in final
Why
1987 World Cup India reached semi finals not group stage
Regarding Kambli's that statement that his career was destroyed after that match in a show to ABP News(then Star News),I wanna tell that after that semi-final lose in 1996 World Cup,he still played 35 ODIs,and one more thing which he said that batters had been ready padded up even before the toss."before the toss"?How?
Indians thought that spin pitch will give them advantage, big mistake. Same thing in 2023 , ahemdabad highway pitch again Travis head showed his brilliance.
Sri Lanka already thoroughly beat India earlier in the World cup. This BS if we lose its fixing if we win other team is crap narrative needs to stop. We lost fair and square. That Sri Lankan team thoroughly dominated 1996. Be graceful in defeat as you are in Victory.
Absolutely correct
Other teams also have come to win
Why do we assume that only good things will happen to us in life ?
For your kind information Sri Lanka didn't beat Australia in group stages....Sri Lanka got walkover from Australia
Also how about 2003 wc defeat against pak. It was a blunder to chose the fielding.
2003 wc team deserves more than 2011 wc team of India.
Defeat against mighty Australia not pakiStan
Nonsense, AUS was by far the best team in that world cup not Ganguly's India which got smashed both time in the league stage & final. Once while batting first, another while chasing. India was not on Australia's level that world cup.
2011 WC was absolutely deserved one as India held their nerve on crucial moments & delivered performances.
Sachin Tendulkar sirf ek cricketer hi nhi the. He was more than that. Jis tarah Sachin sir ne Indian team ko ush time pe sambhala tha jis time pe Indian team me fixing huwa karti thi, woh wakaime greatest hai. Jis tarah aaj k log Kohli ko mathe pe chada rakkha hai, agar kohli Sachin k jagah hota toh pant me mut deta kohli.... Ye toh Sachin tha jisne Indian team ko aakele sambhala tha..... Ishiliye Sachin sir ko God of Cricket kaha jata hai.......
Only thing which gave India after kambli and that humiliating loss of 1996 semifinal was The Bengal Tiger and the Wall of India.
I started watching cricket with my father because there's no options left when you had only 1 tv in family 😂😂😂
My father was a big cricket fan and Azhar fan because he was from poor family but achieved greatness with his hardwork hence he felt close to him and told stories of his struggles to us. But after Azhar was convicted of match fixing he hated Indian cricket team and specially Azharuddin because he felt cheated but I had chosen my Hero and become a die hard fan of Dada. He never watched Cricket match because of Azhar....Hence I had never got any respect for Nayan Mongia, Manoj Prabhakar, Ajay Jadeja and specially for Azharuddin... Because he broke my father's trust on him.
I didn't knew anything about match fixing at that time
Your Father was right brother.But a good era of cricket began after Dada entered.If Dada could've been selected for 1996 WC India could've won.
Ohhh i remember those days in the 90's... sachin out hone k baad sab actually tv band kar dete the.."arre gayi ye match, ab q dekhneka?" Aise sab kehte the.. i remember i shut off the tv even during the famous natwest final of 2002 after sachin's wicket.. 146/5.. still remember the score... indian team on that day thankfully had other ideas though!! 😂😂
Credit should go to our very own Krish Srikanth but mad respect to the Lankan openers who pretty much changed the way batting was done in ODIs
Chokers toh shuru se hum bhi rahe hai..1996, 2003, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2022 aur ab 2023 (WTC ke 2 Finals toh ismein maine gine bhi nahi hai ).
SA chokers hai par Ind bhi chokers hai ye baat Media ne aam janta ko pata nahi lagne diya.
Let us agree on one thing. Sri Lanka was the best team in 96. They defeated australia and india and every other team they played against. Azhar was no where near Arjuna. Sachin was at his best but was easily countered by Desilva.
Sri lankan strategy of using spinners on every indian and srilankan pitches is used till date. Kalu and Jayasuriya aggression was helping srilankan cruise in every chase.
If india would have played first it would have been a more interesting match, may be india would have won semis (which i highly doubt), still india was no where near australia. Only answer to them was Sri Lanka.
27 years now i was a young kid then, i remember crying whole night. I watched finals and supported australia just because india lost to sri lanka.
Today when i look back i am satisfied that india lost to a better side. Every player of that sri lankan team was a gem.
Same with me. I was 9yrs old & was rooting for Australia in the finals just because SL beat us badly in the semis.
Sachin was the highest run scorer of that tournament. How was he easily countered by DeSilva?
@@venusdweller
Sachin scored 523 runs in 7 innings in that world cup at 87.6 average while DeSilva scored 448 runs in 6 innings at 89.6 average.
DeSilva scored with a much better strike rate than Sachin, but most importantly DeSilva gave performances in the biggest games of that WC, semifinals & finals, being the man of the match in both.
In semi came to bat when team was at 1 run for 2 wkts down vs India, smashed 47 ball 66 runs, changed the game.
In the final scored a century in chase & took 3 wkts as well.
So yes DeSilva countered Sachin in that world Cup as well as everyone else.
@@elamcyrilwhen sachin plays the pitch was slow , he played beautifully with 80 sr in that match ,coming to desilva, sl 8/2,desilva out fir 67 sl score 88/4 ,then others forwarded the match
Sachin avg is 87.6 ,but scored 80 runs mire rhan desilva sachin sr is 88 , means he blasted in that wc , ofc desilva played crucial knock in finals that too vs aus is memorable
@@elamcyril I agree DeSilva had a dream tournament - especially the strike rate trumping Sachin's. But SL had multiple match winners in 1996 and was probably the strongest team in that tournament. India was solely dependent on Sachin. Look at the semi final - after Sachin's departure, India lost all their wickets for less than 30 runs. Sachin couldn't afford to play faster - he had to stay and ensure India succeeds.
You look at overall strike rate and average of Sachin and DeSilva in their overall ODIs - you will see who has the edge here.
From that day onwards, Indian cricket recieved a grim reminder!....
T'was a dark chapter in Cricket History!
Now also Our team is heavily dependent on Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma and that's why we lost against Australia in odi world cup final 2023
1:01 you are wrong in 1987 india goes to semi final
India was playing like an unbeatable team in 1987 which was being played in India around Deepawali festival, Chetan Sharma had taken first hat trick of 1 day cricket and Gavaskar’s only 1 day century came But if u look at semi final, clearly it was deliberate on the part of Shastri n Gavaskar to make India lose. Just look at the video of the match and any cricket lover will make out what actually had happened. But no probe, no media cry. Nothing.
Because they are from ....
Sachin scored 523 and the other top scorer Navjot Sidhu was like 176 that tells story about Indian batting
India did well just to reach semi finals in 1996. No way they could have won. SA, AUS, SL and PAK were all better teams at that point.
It was not a fixing as they simply brought Azharuddin into match fixing case, but Dhoni was involved in match fixing since he became captain and T20 cricket started everything to it and destroyed the legacy of cricket
Bro in 1987 india reached semi final and lose to england
Don't think this is right. Srilanka back then were chasing every target with ridiculous ease. So most people in India thought believed that it would be good idea to bowl first if we win the toss. It was actually correct thinking back then. We were actually defeated by the pitch. It was a sub standard pitch. Not sure how they made such terrible pitch for a world cup semifinal. Vinod Kambli's career was wasted 70% due to some bad people in BCCI and 30% due to his lack of focus. If Kambli was supported back then, world would have 3rd great in that era after Sachin and Lara.
This is tge Pain of every Indian.
Every Cricket Lover knows what happened in that era. Match fixing was on its peak. Sharjah was the centre point of Bookies. Sachin was honest he knows everything about match fixing but he couldn't do anything. After Hansie Cronje's self admission ICC took some strong action against match fixing. 🙄😌
Few points worth mentioning for the present generation who might be not well versed what happened in that match.
1. Sri Lanka was attiiwas unstoppable. And they were really chasing well against all teams with new stretegies. This again got proved in final against Australia.
2. India successfully taken 2 most crucial wickets of Jayasurya and Kaliwith'na by fast bowlers but mysteriously Anil Kumble introduced in front of Arvinda D'Silva who is better player of spin.
3. Sudden fall of wickets after a good partnerships also raise suspicion.
4. India was not as big team in 90s as it is today so with advent of TV telecast a team like srilanka can give bookies uncountable profit against the India at home turf.
These are solely my views . So nobody should get hurt.
baby all cups are fixed. trend is to give cup to hosts. this one will be won by india in 2023 .. note it down note it down note it down. 2011 was fixed too. u will never get a proof. but watch it closely u will notice.
@@Liberty55555 yeah even i think the same, totally agree with you bro
This is a historic match and one of the many facts regarding this is Sourav Ganguly gradually replaced Vinod Kambli after this day, as if there was no place for 2 left hand batsmen in the Indian cricket team those days.
In 2023, we should have taken bat first if we would win the toss. But Rohit said that he wanted to bat first anyways. They prioritized their comfort, trend over the pitch condition.😢
Why does India 'misread' home pitches before every vital WC match?!?! It happened in March 1996, again ditto in November 2023. What a shame!!

Me just watching it a day before the semifinal between India and newzealand 😢
Sachin was playing 1vs 21 those days.
The biggest fault goes to the groundsmen who made a third class pitch for such an important high profile match
biggest credit goes to groundsmen in 2023 who made pitches as Indian wishes
1987, we were in the semifinal. The start of the video has a distorted fact in it 😂
