      I'm from the UK but South Africa have produced some of my all time favourite cricketers over the years. Watching Donald send down thunderbolts was a spectacle to behold. Some amazing characters after readmission into test cricket in Fanie De Villiers, Big Bri Mac, Jonty Rhodes and Pat Symcox. I was gutted with what became of Hansie as he'd carried on what Wessels so impressively started.
      Graeme Smith, Herschelle Gibbs, Gary Kirsten, Jacques Kallis, AB DeVilliers, Hashim Amla, Shaun Pollock, Vernon Philander, Dale Steyn, Mark Boucher, Morne Morkel, KG Rabada - all deserve mention for their wonderful contributions to the game as entertainers.
      Makhaya Ntini deserves special mention for his attitude and pride alone. Covered miles in the field in every match he played and could always be heard over the crowd shouting from the boundary 'Come on boys, let them know where you came from!' The guy had fire in his belly and was always up for a scrap.
      England have benefitted from some excellent South African cricketers over the years from Greig, Lamb, Smith, Pietersen, Trott, Strauss and Prior. I bet Dean Elgar wouldn't mind Devon Conway in his current Test XI given the start he's made for NZ!

      The main problem with this video is that it starts with a narrative, that greed ruined the match, then uses genuine facts interspersed with half truths and speculation bordering on lies in order to paint the narrative. This match was highly controversial and worthy of review however to get closer to the truth we need access to the playing conditions that existed in 1992 World Cup. Unfortunately I have not been able to access the specific playing conditions for this tournament and I suggest that Cricket Raaz has also not viewed them for a number of reasons. I will endeavour to make it clear when I am using known facts and when I am making assumptions as a result of not having access to the playing conditions.
      The video accused the Australian Cricket Board of handing over control of crucial playing conditions such as match timing to channel 9. Whilst it is true that the host nation officially writes the playing conditions it is in actuality an agreement between two boards in a bilateral tournament and by all boards in a multilateral tournament such as the World Cup. So for channel 9 to dictate the particular playing conditions they would have to coerce all the national boards.
      The video implies that there was no allowance made to extend the match yet fails to acknowledge that the original schedule had been extended. The first session was extended from 1800 to 1810, the interval was reduced by 10 minutes and the second session was extended from 2200 to 2210. I contend that there was no allowance to extend beyond the already extended time. We need to see the playing conditions for the tournament in order to determine if that is correct. I suggest that if this did contravene the playing conditions it would have resulted in an almighty furore and an official investigation into why the playing conditions were ignored.
      The video contends that channel 9 refused for the reserve day to be used. It is my recollection that once 25 overs have been bowled in the second innings then the match would not use a reserve day as sufficient overs had been bowled to allow a result. Therefore, I believe, channel 9 could not have refused the use of a reserve day as it was the playing conditions of the tournament as agreed by all participants.
      The video stipulates that the “rain rule” was devised by channel 9. Firstly it was not called the rain rule it was called the Most Productive Over (MPO) method. Prior to this tournament the Average run rate rule was used to determine the revised target in the event of rain delays and it had proved to be inadequate on many occasions. Therefore a panel of experts headed by the late great Richie Benaud were tasked with devising a new method. However, the rationale of this method was based on stoppages occurring during the interval, so that if Team 2 lost say 25 overs, then their target was derived from the 25 most productive overs in Team 1’s innings, irrespective of when the overs were lost. So if the stoppage was in the latter part of Team 2’s innings it often gave a grossly unfair target. Unfortunately this method was also not fit for purpose, that led to the introduction of the Duckworth Lewis method. I can see no reason for channel 9 to get involved in this revised target calculation as it would serve zero commercial value to them. It is simply a method of determining what score needs to be achieved if the overs are reduced.
      I am willing to be proved incorrect if there is evidence that the playing conditions as they stood in 1992 were deliberately violated and that it was channel 9 that instigated the violation.

      On the other hand, 6xers and 4 are considered as same and thats even more ridiculous.
      Mathematically 2 6xers make 12 runs and 3 4s make 12 runs... based on this , WC finals shouĺd have been a TIE bcz NZ scored more 6xers and that didnt happen bcz of morons making the rules who couldnt use a bit of cricketing wisdom.

      wrong about 2011 bro. As a team SA was not good, but AB was a beast in 2011. In 2011-12, AB rarely/never got out by bowled or lbw or stumped, he got out by runout or getting caught alone (i.e. the bowlers could not deceive him)
      In 2011 World Cup, SA batting was heavily dependent on AB and he delivered. In first 2 mathes he scored 107 and 134. they lost third match vs Eng and 4th match vs India he again scored a quick 52 of 39 and SA was in the quarters, the next 2 matches SA rested AB.
      In the quarters, AB was going well, they needed 100 from 21 overs. And he was RUNOUT (the only way to make AB out those days)
      So, i beielve 2011 also, SA was unlucky

      NZ wasn't deprived of WC because of any absurd rule. When the rule was created for most boundaries, every team captain agreed upon it and there was no opposition to the idea. And it was extremely unlikely that a match be tied and then super over be tied as well. Every team captain had to take responsibility for not criticizing this rule when it was conveyed. There was a vote for it as well and everyone signed. 1992 rules were outrageous and were criticized even before WC had begun and even Australians were against it but consensus wasn't an option then. It was there in 2019 case. Stop feeling sorry for NZ. As Indians we have a soft corner for NZ and SA players and general hatred towards Aus and England. It creates bias. ICC were completely dominated by the sheer wave of social media criticism led by Indians and Aussies that they had to change the rule completely. Personally I didn't like the rule, but the uproar was out of proportion. England won NZ lost and NZ were partly responsible for that.
