saeed anwar wicket was the real turning point in this match the flick of srinath for six was the shot of the tournament. as an indian i always loved saeed anwar batting great fan of him miss those old pak players they definitely didnt do justice for there talent they should have atleast won another two world cups. this is the difference between Australia and other teams lack of professionalism
Saeed Anwar was my brother's class fellow in CA Model School, Karachi Airport - He is an Engineer Graduated from NED Engineering University, Karachi - One of Pakistan's Best Engineering Universities - He is from a very good Urdu Speaking family migrated from UP India during 1947 partition.
This might be happened at the Asian XI vs world XI match that has been scheduled in 1997 but unfortunately Saeed Anwar was injured just before the match and Saurave Ganguly replaced him. It’s a dream to watch saeed and tendulkar to open the inning in 90’s as they were so competent and class act and terror for the bowlers at that time.
6 matches, 6th innings and 300+ score in this tournament with an average of over 107... thats some class dude... and back those days , cricket was fair enough for bowlers batsmen, not like these days favouring batting only. #LegendSaeedAnwar
Pakistan should have cantered to a win here particularly given that they had a deep batting lineup till Latif. But Ijaz, Malik and Inzamam got out cheaply, literally throwing their wickets and they lost their way. A similar pattern was repeated in 1999 against India when the middle order again got out cheaply and lost that game, failing to chase 227. I remember this game and was on the verge of switching off my TV in disappointment until Sohail got out. Somehow, I feel Ind v Pak today is not the same as it was in the 1980s and 90s given the quality of those players.
Saeed Anwars timing was so so goood. Amazing player. Love Amir sohails aggression. Will never forget mindads poor bating. Thanks for the wonderful memories Saeed Anwar 👍
What a gem Saeed was as an opening batter! Difference in temperament and class with Amir was there to witness. Risk free innings yet so fluent, so soothing to eyes
Syed Anwar has no match even in these days. A combination of class, craftsmanship,timing ,placement and natural talent.It is a feast to watch Anwar batting.
Watching in 2019,23 yrs looks like just yesterday! How fast Time flys. All childhood memories erupted, beautiful and very simple life it was, magnificent friends era never come again
Saeed anwar he was my favourite player of all the time. I was crazy when he was batting. He was great opener great batsman in the world with great timing

Saed Anwar is one of the greatest player in the world n I’m not Pakistani but i really though Pakistan should have won 1999 world cup n they also missed 2019 W.C . Their came back amazed n shocked the players around the world

Used to like this pakistani team. But people here comparing saeed anwar with Amir Sohail seems like injustice to Anwar. Sohail was ok type batsman and Anwar was pure class and agression. In fact he should be more likey be compared with Lara. Ya he lost his touch in later stages of his career bcoz of his personal losses but in his peak he was right up there with Tendulkar and Lara. And inziman got him run out on few occasion too.
I think Salman Butt had the talent and potential to become second Saeed Anwar. He too was a wristy and stylish player of ball relying heavily on timing it than striking it hard, just like Saeed Anwar was. Unfortunately he spoiled his own career for few crore rupees.

This was a time when Pakistan was clearly a superior cricket team than India's - and we didn't make the most of it. We were probably the 2nd best team in the 1996 WC (after SL) and the best team in the 1999 WC. When we again get talented players hope we learn from the current India management on how to maximize the team's potential.
Aamir and saeed layed a very good foundation in first 10 overs ,then sudden fall of wickets . It was fixed. Pak fixed with india in QF and Srilanka fixed with india in SF. 😅😅🤣
Yessssss. Been looking for this forever. Am Indian and remember watching it in India a large a kid, just dumbfounded by what I was watching. They messed up this chase after an amazing start, but man you couldn’t fault these two. Saeed Anwar’s was one of the best knocks in the entire World Cup.
The match was very clearly in Pakistan's hand... there were no signs less than a victory... At this point, both openers should have played strategically with singles till the next 10-15 overs and then the rest was easy for Pakistan... But, something different was written in their fate, and the better team India sealed the deal for the semi-finals... (although they were outclassed) This match was more sensational than the semi-finals or finals... what a memory..
Great work... fantastic futage...clear view with HD quality. Watching this. highlight I feel like watching this match live...love it......😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
Me too...Irony is pak won the toss and bowled first...whereas if this match was in sharjah 99.99 % they would have batted first and usually won most of the times....
I have noticed one thing: In all India vs Pakistan world cup matches Pakistan always starts off really good and they play really well in the beginning, but then come under pressure somewhere down the line. This is a pattern that has always happened in the 7 ODI matches we have played against India. IMHO Pakistan cricket board must hire a therapist to give the players counseling. They must practice stress reduction as well by doing yoga and meditation.
One win one lose it's a game, but look at the class of Saeed Anwar's batting, no comparison, what if he was in India or other cricket loving countries Pakistan's dirty politics wasted his early 4 years when he was on his prime,sad so sad
I still remember this match watching live on PTV after coming back from my school. I watched each and every ball of Pakistan innings. When Pak started loosing wickets, there was power break-down in my area, so we started listen on Radio Pakistan Karachi, that was a black day for us. We are 231 for 5 after 41-42 overs (chasing 288), when Rashid Latif & Javed Miandad were batting but we ended at around 240 for 9 after 49 overs. In those days, Pakistan were a lot stronger team than India, but in Pakistan this defeat & absence of Wasim Akram was very suspicious and almost all of us started to believe that Pakistan deliberately loosed this match. God knows whether its true or not. But I was very disappointed after this match. Soon after loosing this world cup, PCB recruited Saqlain, Afridi, Abdul Razzaq, Azhar Mehmood and Shoaib Akhtar to give a boost and the new era of Pakistan Cricket started.
If wasim akram was available for this game,believe me Pakistan not only won this quarter final but also won this world cup,so that would be the consecutive world cups for pakistan
I can never forget 9th of March 1996, the day was Saturday & I was going through my horrifying, crucifying & exciting at the same time,10th grade annual exams, called matriculation exams, that had put a humongous amount of pressure on me already. Having come back home after done with the Physics' paper (I had secured 77% when the results came), I started watching the match. Jadeja wrecked havoc on my then favorite Waqar Younas. When Pakistan started batting Amir Sohail & Saeed Anwer started returning the favor. It was so exciting and heart warming that I cant even express in words. But it was short lived, Saeed Anwer fell so unexpectedly & Amir Sohail fell prey only to his useless bravado. Instead of sending Javed Miandad & Salim Malik to consolidate, rather Ijaz and Inzamam were sent who fell cheaply putting huge pressure on Javed & Salim. Still they played well making 38 each, When Latif hit two sixes the diminishing hopes were revived again, 58 required now of 40 balls but the rush of blood took its toll on Latif & with him gone, were the hopes too, & then Javed & eventually the tail. Such a sad ending. Before 1996 I had developed a firm belief in not having the ability to achieving two things, matric & hat-tric, 1996 proved me so wrong, there was a hatric, as 9th,10th & 11th of March 1996 proved to be three consecutive worst days, 11th being the ever destructive Mathematics' paper (I secured 50%, being my greatest academic achievement till date), and 10th March because when I was preparing for the exam at night, an absolutely unscheduled electricity outage owing to a thunderstorm, badly hampered my "last stand" in the face of a mighty adversary called Mathematics. What a hatric !!! And guess what when the result came on 27th of June, I had succeeded in doing the matric with 71% marks :p :p :p
I also watched my first match with Bhaijan he was mentor of us three brothers .... I still remember that day ..... Pakistan was winning and then unfortunately lost
Pakistan was not having good mentor after imran.that is the real fact about declining pak cricket.how Sachin holded the team along with Dravid ganguly kumble.that was missing in pak.they did not creat personality cult inside the team.this was the biggest difference.resultant no discipline and no respect for each other.talent is not every thing nourishment makes the difference.hope now azam is having that quality after inzamaam but need 2 to 3 players like that in the team then only atmosphere will change inside dressing room.
But Sohail had great heart and a fighter to the core..was a very good opener but fell away due to politics and his own anger issues...he actually played better than Anwar in some series...he scored that 200 in England in 1992 and had great potential but i totally agree with you,Anwar was in a completely different league....his records dont do justice
We pakistani promote peace as part of our beliefs, but you are always going to get haters and spoilsports, always, no worries, that's there perogative.
Amid the heartbreak and emotion of losing this game, when by all standards, Pak should have won, the simple truth as a Pakistani fan is Wasim didn't play deliberately as he was asked to throw the game but he knew that would invite the wrath (which it did anyway by not playing )... Sohail was not the captain you need with players like Miandad etc in the team.. Plus the shots by Ijaz, Inzi and Salmi Malik showed a glimpse of compromise.. So a team imbalanced by Wasim's absence and Waqar's desire to bowl even faster resulted in this historic defeat...
I remember in 1996, I went out for 15 minutes and was very happy with Pakistan opening. But when i came back after 15 minutes, the situation was very bad & Pakistan were struggling
In my eyes. the best Pakistan team ever! Though it didn’t continue long and had little success. They won Sahara Cup in Canada, VB Series (Australia) for the first time, Beating 2-0 in test match in England and a Trophy in Singapore. Regarding this Bangalore match - Pakistan had a blistering start in opening ! The asking run rate was below 6.0! Later messed up because of Amir Sohail lost his temper and tried sledge Venkatesh Prasad. He got out in the very next ball. Pakistan lost momentum. By the way, I am from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
I watched this live on TV in my student days and it was very exciting. Now when I watched it again, it seems rather tame. Cricket has changed a lot since that day in Bangalore
Saeed Anwar is my all time favourite batsman. Love you from Bangladesh 🇧🇩

84/0 in 10 overs back in 1996, while most teams struggle to get that score in 2022
He made that time 192
Saeed Anwar the best classy T20 type player Pakistan ever produced 20-30 years back.

I remember in 1996, I went out for 15 minutes and was very happy with Pakistan opening. But when i came back after 15 minutes, the situation was very bad & Pakistan were struggling
Pakistan flying start and indian crowd was in shock.
Yes....pin drop silence ...
Indian crowd is unique one when it comes to silence
Lol
We didn't get good openers after them
Srinath is the best seam bowler of India I have ever seen
Great jori opning saeed anwar amir sohail
Hats off to you sir Saeed Anwar
Saeed Anwar and Amir Sohail are great players
Saweed is one of the talented & dumendous cricketer in all time cricket history
In my eyes. the best Pakistan team ever! Though it didn’t continue long and had little success. They won Sahara Cup in Canada, VB Series (Australia) for the first time, Beating 2-0 in test match in England and a Trophy in Singapore.
Regarding this Bangalore match - Pakistan had a blistering start in opening ! The asking run rate was below 6.0! Later messed up because of Amir Sohail lost his temper and tried sledge Venkatesh Prasad. He got out in the very next ball. Pakistan lost momentum. By the way, I am from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Love you Bhaiyya , am from India.. shows your love to Pak
@@mayanm7105 Thanks! by the way, i am from Bangladesh
Still cant comprehend how pakistan managed to lose this one after such a great start
Saeed Anwar Aamir sohail 😘
I was in clas 8 then. Too much invlvd. After this match I could not live, eat and drink normally for almost a month.
I was in 6 class didnt relax untill pakistan won against indian after this worldcup pak kept on wining matches after this lost match
i was in 6th class
I was in 10 class student match was fixed
Hahh..i was also an 8th standard student nd i also did the same😂
I was in Class 3.
saeed anwer jaisa poore pakistan mein koi nahi
Ho bhi nahin sakta..after all he pioneered the role of 12th man ...extra runner
A flick.shot to six @ 35:30 only he can play ...his own shot....I never any batsman who can play this kind of shot... absolutely amazing shot...
I watched this live on TV in my student days and it was very exciting. Now when I watched it again, it seems rather tame. Cricket has changed a lot since that day in Bangalore
Cricket King and Danger of world Saeed Anwar. Real Hero ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇵🇰
Surprised to see great Saqlain Mushtaq as 12th man
Waseem Ashraf mushi was on a decline by then. Pakistan needed salami and basit Ali in the line up
God gifted, brave, stylish, fast, but sensible player, saeed anwar we love u n miss u a lot, ❤❤❤❤❤
Iconic pair of opening Saeed anawer and amir sohail
