- The famous 'Win in the Dark'. Requested by myjkyz87.
The azaan had already sounded, and the sun had sunk far beneath the Karachi horizon, when Graham Thorpe played the chinese cut off Saqlain Mushtaq, triggering mass jubilation from England's cricketers, not to mention the small knot of fans - all 12 of them - who had clung on in the fast-fading light.
It had been an astonishing sprint to the finish, in a series that England - under the emotional, attritional leadership of Nasser Hussain - had paced to perfection. With the side in a transitional phase after the serial failures of the 1990s, Hussain's mantra was "stay in the contest at all costs". He realised that, before England could learn how to win, they first had to learn how to not lose.
Consequently the series was a drudge for 14 days out of 15. Thorpe epitomised England's approach with a century in Lahore, which contained just two boundaries, but their refusal to buckle put the pressure back on the hosts. On the final morning in Karachi they capitulated, losing their last seven wickets for 80, leaving England needing 176 to win in a minimum of 44 overs.

Here after the devastating news of Graham Thorpe’s death this morning. He was such a great player under pressure and his 50 in the second innings was the reason why we won the game and the series. RIP Thorpey
Devastated to hear about the passing of Graham Thorpe 😢 This is the innings I always think of when he's mentioned. My favourite player for years. Rest peacefully Thorpey.
Back here today to reminisce over one of Thorpe's most remarkable innings. One of my all-time favourite players and probably my first cricketing "hero" having started watching in the mid 90s. RIP to a legend.
This year was the start of England's resurgence, this victory following their win over the West Indies under Nasser Hussain's captaincy. Hussain remains one of the most important players in English cricket history.
ض
Agreed. Hussain instilled a more ruthless streak into the England team. He didn't quite have the tactical nous of Vaughan but he made us harder to beat and basically dragged the team forward from the old public schoolboy mentality that was rife.
Yes england were ranked bottom in test rankings in year 1999
I still remember watching day 5 live on TV and perhaps this was the first day night test ever lol, but England deserved to win as Pakistan's over rate that final innings was dreadful and was on purpose,
Listen to this test on TMS on my pocket radio back in 2000. Loved Thorpe's heroics with the bat in the gloom of Karachi.
Thank you Thorpey for the wonderful memories. 🏏
Best Test Match as an England fan. 16 months after hitting rock bottom v New Zealand and we were a joke. We have been getting better ever since.
This test match changed England's cricket forever.
Fix test match! Pakistan blatantly threw it away on day 5.
This is up there with England's greatest wins post war. Incredible scenes and the start of a decade long rise to no.1
No doubt Pakistan batsmen played its part on day five to make it happen. Test was drying out into a bore draw, but then a dramatic collapse on a dead wicket hands England a unlikely series win over Pakistan in subcontinent.
I well remember this era. Aged 30 at the time, I saw England triumph in the fading light, a feat repeated in Rawalpindi today (2022). Darren Gough, a future Terpsichore's muse, as was Mark Ramprakash, were in their playing days then.
Love the music at the end mate. What a win by england in the fading light. Would not be allowed under todays playing conditions, imagine the penalties Pakistan would have faced for their slow tactics.
10:31 funny part was, batsman was able to hit the ball with bat but Moin couldn't see it while catching with keeping gloves.
Haha! I like your comment but you are ignoring the fast edge and comparing the spinner throwing to batter with less pace with fast edge.
I was there (& in Sri Lanka in 2001) - great memories.
Peace.
did u come to india too late 2001 , 2001-02 whn eng toured ?
Pakistan's front line pace bowler was Abdul Razzaq (along with Waqar) and they played Imran Nazir and Shahid Afridi in the same test. They were doomed from the start.
It was the end of Pakistan's golden era of test cricket and beginning of England.
VOLCANO HD Pakistan gifted England the match. Match fixing at its best. Pakistan finish day 1, 292-3. Then day 5 are Ona hefty 71-2. Then a dramatic collapse on a dead wkt. England’s only win in subcontinent over Pakistan in 21 years.
@@ImranKhan-eo2hq yes sir if Pakistan wins always pure efforts and when they lose its always match fixing....good analysis from Majority of u all
I don't understand Pakistan not using surnames as other countries do. Why is that, and the reasoning behind it. There seems to be no continuity of surnames- who is related to somebody else!
@@angelacooper2661 Depends on the family. Some of the well known ones always use family surnames (like the last name Afridi) but for most, the father's first name becomes your last name. That may actually come from Arab culture where the same thing happens. I agree it is strange and not too many cultures in the world do this
One of the final test matches to be played in the 20th century.
This was the first ever day night test match, and that too without flood lights!
one of the finest victory of English Cricket.
Always remember Thorpe as a young cricketer , when watching England you knew he was going to hang around
this test series was like: Pakistan dominated 14 of the 15 days of 3 tests but lost the series due to poor display of cricket on the 15th and the final day.
Big display of cheating that back fired when they couldn't see the ball.
Excellent scenes. Thanks Quora, which bought me here
I love Test Match! Thank you Pak, thank you England! Wow..
nish vishnu
very good vid. well edited and not too long

hahaha!
Loved the video.
Another Brilliant Upload Keep It up
Bowling Saqi !! Miss those days. Good world back then.
Sahi me bhaisaab... Kaafi acchi duniya thi jaisi bhi thi...
If batsman is happy and willing to play then no excuse is accepted from bowlers and fielders. I have seen this match live pakistan by purpose wasted time to draw match.
How much was the target
Why on earth moin khan declared on 176 target with 44 overs left in a day . Simply poor captaincy without forcasting . Wasim was not even playing this match, relying on waqar and saqlain made you defeated on undefeated national stadium ground karachi .
@@naumanmuhammadsmefinancefo1450 he didn't declare, England bowled Pakistan out.
@@naumanmuhammadsmefinancefo1450 Pakistan could have easily saved the match. They were docked about 10 runs by umpires for slow over rate and Pakistan fielders were unable to field as they couldn't see ball. About 15 runs went because of this. England had only about 2-3 overs left.
@@umranafzal2969 Pakistan intentionally wested time for draw the test. But unfortunately Steve bucknor pick the trick.
Inzamam's first innings hundred never should have been. He was absolutely stone dead plumb when he was on 1 but the Pakistani umpire refused to give it. Surprise is none.
One of best test match won by England ever.
No doubt, my favourite test match ever. I sneaked out of the office - I was the joint "boss" after all - at about 10.30 on a Monday morning to find a pub that was open down London Bridge. I thought I''ll sneak in for a quiet pint, there'll be no-one there and It'll be Ok. Think it was queens something in the next alley down from the George. I couldn't get in the door, never mind get served, cos of the suits that were doing the same and were all "popping in for a sneaky one". What a win. Players going mental, everyone in pub going nuts. So funny as Pakistan had gone so slow to play for time with England batting last, but it didn't matter cos as long as the batsmen didn't complain, the umpires wouldn't take them off. First time loss for Pakistan in Karachi, first time England winning in Pakistan maybe ever; camera caught fat English in empty stand as after Thorpe and co came screaming off; bloke just stood there with a mad English face, thinking, you can play in the dark, you can make me drink Coke, you can have the best spinner (Saqlan) you can prove unbeaten. Well, that's all gone, we've won now!

Thumbs up if Headingley 2019 brought you here!. BARMY ARMY
Who’s here after todays result😂 and hearing Atherton and Nasser saying abouy the gloomy karachi game lol
Myself after two wins and of course after the commentary as well 😉
Here after clean sweep 😂
Wonderful match. England winning series after 39 years in Pakistan
so one thing is clear the biggest hurdle for any team outside Asia is winning test series in India and Pakistan.
johny walker yes....and they took the series with this win
illusionist England won this test and the series! The series was 0-0 after 2 matches and this was the 3rd and final match, which England won - thus taking the series.
@Sam and they won the 3 match series winning this test match
Rode Runa The match was clearly fix. Pakistan collapsing from 292-3. Then day 5 with a bore draw looming Pakistan dramatically collapse from 71 for 2 on dead wicket.
Agree very much with Adam W, Nasser Hussain was a good player and an excellent captain. Players were selected on performance and not by virtue of the old pals act. He set England on a more successful path where finally we could be more competitive. His captaincy was a seminal moment in English cricket.
Thats why Nass and Athers are respected.. This english team was nowhere close to world beaters in terms of talent but they did so well in that Asia leg.. Winning in Pak SL and drawing in India
Ici aprix le podcast feat Nazír Hussâin et Michelle Athreton.
C'est Magnificent.
This test match made me cry as a pakistani fan we never lost a single match at national stadium karachi in before that match
That record was never going to stand once neutral umpires were brought in.
Pakistan was unbeaten at Karachi and this defeat was the first test defeat at this venue. Later southafrica in 2008 and England in 2022 defeated Pakistan again on this venue. Australia came close on defeating Pakistan in 1994 but Pakistan by 1 wicket. India had Pakistan for 39/6 at Karachi in 2006 but still india lost by record margin. This venue is special for home team and opposition as well.
You wouldn't happen to have the Mark Butcher England in the 90s documentary by any chance? Or know where it might be found? I have Sky, but it doesn't seem to be available on their player any more. I'd love to watch it.
I remember this game very well. Pakistan's 1st ever defeat in tests in Karachi
Pakistan just blown away by England in the final day.
Great Cricket🏏
Love Pakistan team from india
I think Pakistan probably have one of the most formidable batting line up back on those days... Saeed Anwar, Inzamam ul Haq, Younis Khan, Mohammad Yusuf...
They also had Ijaz Ahmed and Amir Sohail a good batsman, probably not like them. Still can havoc
Who is here after watching today’s test match of england vs Pakistan
National stadium was almost empty even at time when legends waqar inzamam wasim saqlain were playing
InSha Allah Cricket will return in Pakistan.Ameen
And now it's back! Fantastic stuff, you love to see it 👍🏻
England are visiting after 17 years
GOOD
Look at the support England is getting
England🏴😍
First day night test match of the history!
How are they playing it's too dark
England vs Pakistan match 1st country to win against Pakistan at Karachi stadium in test cricket. Other teams have won against Pakistan in odi not test in this pitch.
Good comebeak by England team..
you gotta feel for the pakistan bowlers - they spent 70 overs trying to get Nasser & Athers out in the 1st innings - feel for the poor spectators too
I was there and also watched the ODI where Freddie hammered 72 off 40 odd balls
The Pakistani keeper sounds so much like Sarfaraz Ahmed in this match
Steve Bucknor could see everything in that light, including the money going into his bank for not coming off for bad light 🤣
I am Pakistani but bucknor did the right thing. Moin khan was wasting a lot of time. Opposition should bowl the reaming overs left in the day instead of wasting time.
This test should have been called a day night test match
Good Win 🙏🌹❤️🕉️
2000 and England beat Pakistan. 2022 England win a series in Pakistan again
No scorecard, wth highlights is this?
1st ever test defeat at Karachi
Classic test outfits.
After conceding a six Moin khan told to Saqlain : Sabas sabas saqi, never mind.
Did Pakistan Cricket board made a secret deal with England for the home tour. ?
Seems like it. I recall this ordinary England team was given no chance to draw let alone win the series. However Pakistan had other ideas. The match was blatantly fixed. Pakistan collapsing from 292-3. Then 2nd inns Day 5 from 71-2 on dead wicket.
@@ImranKhan-eo2hq If you think that Pakistan deliberately fixed the match to lose then that's even worse than losing fairly and you should be totally ashamed of them. 'We only lost this match because our players were all match fixing cheats' is not a great thing to be shouting in front of the world. I think the ICC would probably have found evidence if this actually happened.
Always good to see Moin Khan's shithousery captured for all time.
Agreed. But if this was good, coming back from 1-0 down against Sri Lanka on their turf immediately afterward, and winning the series 2-1 was brilliant. This was the point where English cricket stopped focusing on preventing a loss, and going for wins.
englandsonemanarmy - do you have the 2001 series where we played Sri Lanka and beat them?
Come here from "
sawal cricket ka"
Moin Khan had nothing to complain about, deliberately wasting time in the final session. Steve Bucknor was having none of it!
todays pakistan is like win against England in England and defeat against Zimbawawe
10.32 moain Khan c'mon stivi(Steve Buckner) kuch najar hi ni aa ra..
Pakistan should bol with their faster bowlers I guess
Senseless decision by umpires cause the sun had already set who play in this light
First day n night test
Not true.
Although this test match finished around dusk, there was a day in the New Zealand vs England 2002 test match in Auckland that was played under lights with the red ball due to making up lost time as a result of the weather.
before this test no one can beat Pakistan at this venue ( Karachi ) , that was history but this test match create another history was playing after Sunset so you can say that was unofficially ist Day Night test ,,,
lets hope we get another competitive series for this yr, when england go back there again.
@@kiz5562 yes we r waiting for this
@@beawarebeeducatedawareness2060 the current t20 series has been great so far. Full house crowds and good atmosphere.
@@kiz5562 yes absolutely after a longer time English team has came in Pakistan for playing international series, & now I'm in stadium with full chair up noisy crowd , what a victory for pak now @karachi in 4th t20
Pakistan ko harna hi tha ye match dekh k malum pd rha tha
well What imran nazir and keneria were supposed to do in PAK 11.. ANSWER IS PAK 9
This video doesn't convey how much time wasting there was, I was in a pub in witney for a lunchtime drink that turned into six or seven. The Pakistani team annoyed the umpires so much they stayed out to spite them. Mess with mother cricket and pay the consequences. (oh and I had to get a lift home, I was plastered!)
LMAO Moin Khan had a comment for every ball. Wonder how his teammates put up with that.
10:32 "Come on yaar, gend nahi nazar aa rha Stevie". As though Bucknor could understand that lol
Pakistan's unbeaten record of 45 years in Karachi was broken 😂
Not broken...sold off! The match was drying in to a bore draw, but a dramatic collapse on a dead wicket handed England an incredibly unlikely series win over Pakistan in subcontinent.
teray khuz arshad
To lose a test match after being 292/3 on the close of day 1,happens once in a thousand times.
Who knows may be match fixing!
And very poor thinking by the coach, Javed Miandad & Moin Khan.
Fix test match! Pakistan 292-3 on day 1, then start 5th day in hefty position and suffer dramatic collapse on flat track offering bowlers nothing.
Steve bucknor really undidputed king of wrong decisions
Pakistan couldn't see the ball but they got what they deserved...far to much time wasting... respect to bucknor👌🙏😆
nazir and afridi playing test what a joke?
vikas Afridi played only few tests he played ony 27 tests
Why did Pakistan declare🤣🤣🤣
They were bowled out.. They didn't declare
Darren's General Info They were not bowled out.. they were sold out.
I'm watching this match in December2020,,I was born on 2002😂
کھیل کےمنفی کام ھوا۔اندھیرہ ھوچکاتھا
so one thing is clear the biggest hurdle for any team outside Asia is winning test series in India and Pakistan.
I agree with you it's a huge achievement for any team to win a test series in Pakistan and India
