Hi
I am not too sure if you are familar with an old BBC 2 ( UK )programme that ran in the 70's,80's & 90's called 100 Greatest Sporting Moments.
I am sure that the OD between Oz & SA would of made that grade easlier.
My friend & I had just come back from a long jog & started to watch the match with about 20 overs left... it would have been a sight to be treasured if you seen our jaws drop in awe when we realised that this was a one dayer nearing its unforgettable conclusion. For me it is the greatest ever limited overs match bar none & one that will be an exception to the rule that records are tere to be broken !!!!!!!

I think cricket matches should be rated individually and not compared as the best against each other. No doubt it was one of the most exciting games in the history of cricket but it also undermines the perfomance of the fielding side, i.e. the bowlers performance. There are much more exciting nail biting finishes through out the history of the game. Dont know if u have watched the un official match of World XI v/s Aus XI where Micchael Bevan took Australia so close to victory but didnt win.

No, because SA and AUS are rated no.1 and 2 respectively. ICC champs final ENG and the WI I think was a better match

after my reasonin u ll definatly agree that it was NOT a great match..
434 in 50 overs is a run rate of 8.64 per over...which means 173.6 runs in 20 overs...
and d highest runs in 20 overs which i have seen is 212 which was sucessfully chased ....
so still if u have any doybt i would be happy 2 ans jus mail me at krish_xplor@yahoo.co.in..
hope 2 hear from u soon..

THAT WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST BATTING PITCHES IN THE WORLD, BUT South africa's Confidence took them to their victory over the visitors.
