Gary Kirsten | Cronje gave South Africa thrilling victory in 3rd Odi at Faridabad 2000

South Africans handled the pressure situation admirably
The Springboks were 0-2 down and it was a must win situation for them at Faridabad, to stay in the series
The Springboks were 0-2 down and it was a must win situation for them at Faridabad, to stay in the series. With the plan of defending targets not succeeding in the earlier games, Cronje had to come up with a different ploy. He decided to back his batting and opted to chase on winning the toss. The wicket at Faridabad was different than it normally is, providing a bit of bounce and movement for the seamers early on, but Ganguly countered it with some magnificent shots.
He is aware that his strength is in playing through the offside and he smashed the South African seamers at will after giving himself room. Tendulkar, trying to graft out a big score, looked solid but was trapped by Shaun Pollock. This brought Dravid to the crease early on, providing him the opportunity to play a long innings. He always puts a price on his wicket and the fall of Ganguly and Azharuddin meant that Dravid had to play the sheet anchor role, which suits him. Dravid, along with Jadeja, kept things ticking over with the South Africans slowly sneaking back into the game. Some sensible batting towards the end by Joshi and Dighe produced 75 runs in the last 10 overs to give the Indians a competitive score.

[@TheAusJT]

Any particular reason why the Channel 9 Australia logo and theme music was used in the intro?

[@1996Amitava]

Reason is that on 2000 feb to 2002 Jan there was a deal between DD to Chanell 9 2yrs deal.but after 2002 Ind v Eng 2002 home series contract not renewed . After 2002 feb to 2005 NIMBUS was broadcaster DD SPORTS ,
