Great Moments in World Cup History

Reckon Yuvraj's innings against Oz in the WC QF in 2011 was pretty special. That match decided the world cup IMO - India were always going to be extremely difficult to beat after ending Australia's reign that stretched batch to the 1996 final.

Gary Kirsten talks up Raina's significance to India's WC win courtesy his performance in that game.

Raina - worth every cent of that $4 million

You speak as if that's a desirable outcome.

Thanks for reminding me of a truly great World Cup moment. The over-hyped Galactico's crash out.

They presciently chose to not participate in the most boring Super (eight) stage of a WC ever, IIRC.

That Tendy inning of 2003 against pakistan was sublime. That dropped catch off Wasim was so heartbreaking. Still can't get it out of my head. The match could have been totally different but sigh. What an innings. That six over 3rd man off Shoaib was just out of this world

Really nice thread.

Not very good video quality, but one of the classic Indo-Pak moments.

We haven't mentioned the Pollock cock up with Duckworth/Lewis yet. That has to be one of the greatest moments ever, well it is as it isn't your own team.
