Azhar casually flicks it straight over long on for a six in the World Cup game on Diwali day Oct 22, 1987 vs. Australia at Delhi.

Sunil Gavaskar takes a classic catch on this day in 1987 World Cup. Siva had this knack of deceiving batters with low dipping full tosses. Apparently this was Siva’s last international wicket.

Harsha captures this well about Anil Kumble. (Sportstar June 1999). Happy birthday legend. “You know, and this might sound completely ridiculous, if more young men tried to emulate Kumble rather than Tendulkar, Indian cricket might actually emerge stronger”

October 9, 1987 Allan Lamb won this World Cup game when 91 neded off last 10. A rarity back in time. Lamb had also scored 18 to win off Bruce Reid final over to win at SCG in Jan 1987. And Feb 1987 Salim Malik scored 72 off 35 balls when Pak needed 80+ in 8 overs at Eden.

Ian Chappell was the first Australian to hold 100 catches in Tests. One of the finest slip fielder, here he catches WI Lawerence Rowe on Boxing Day 1975, a full house Melbourne. Happy birthday Chappelli !! Photo: Patrick Edgar, book Hitting Out (The Ian Chappell Story)

In 1990, Sunil Gavaskar told Sachin Tendulkar, "I will strangle you if you don't get 15K runs and 40 Test Centuries". And eventually Sachin Tendulkar ended his career with 15921 runs and 51 Test Hundreds.

Some of us have watched this TV show, when it was televised. Some of us know who brought this video recording to the Twitter in 2019 as well. That was @suubsy . Subu's video is clipped, his bookmark is erased & shared as their own. This is plagiarism & digital theft. #Cricket

Ganguly's presence was felt when he faced Pakistan bowling between 1997-2000. It was something special, 7 or so Man of match, runs scored with elegance at fair clip and this century in Adelaide 2000 was ranked one of the best. Happy birthday dada !!! xitter.cf/suubsy/status/20747978…

The only player to be named Man of the match in an IPL final from a losing team - Anil Kumble RCB should have really won their first trophy way back in 2009 itself. They had that momentum in the second half.

Someday soon Vaibhav might get this kind of backing from selectors very similar to what chairman of selector Naren Tamhane had for Sachin back in 1989. “Sachin Tendulkar never fails” the great Raj Singh Dungarpur narrates in a documentary.

That front foot trigger, then swift transfer of weight to back foot once he saw the length and still maintaining shape to play an aggressive cut shot of premier fast bowler in seaming Adelaide conditions 1991 December. Sachin at 18 was a delight.
