As a srilankan fan i must say, he was trying his best to protect fall of wickets from a one side..he was easily picking any kind of a spin even at a damaged spinning turf..he was Hurt.. He cried.. A True warrior..the best stylish leftie of india..such a wastage you freaking champ..Fc avg almost 60 and 10k runs..shane warnes nightmare... Salute from srilanka..
It was Indias bad luck that they have to bat second on turning pitch. sri lanka would also have struggled at bat second here. But it was all in Sri Lanka destiny. If any team who deserves to win the 1996 WC, it was Sri Lanka. Kudos to Ranatungw and the boys
His Test batting Average at the end of his Test Career was 51....!!!! Why was he dropped after playing only 17 Test matches when his batting Average was 51...!! Two hundred hundreds within 10 Tests...!! Still no answer.....!!
Mujhe abhi bhi yad h jab Tak Sachin batting kar rhe the tab tak wicket bahut asaan lag rhi thi batting k liye lekin jaise hi Sachin out huye uske bad wicket itni mushkil ho gyi thi khelne k liye ki jaisurya jaise bowler ki ball bhi 90degree ki angle se turn hone lagi thi wicket jaldi jaldi girne Lage bas kambli ak side khade the akele aur phir kalkota ki public ne bottle kachre fhekna suru kar diya yaha tak stadium k kuch hisse pe aag laga di mujhe aaj bhi ye match bahut acche se yad h india k liye ye ak kala din tha halaki tab mai 12 sal ka tha
But can't play real genuine fast bowling just he can score against spinners and medium pace bowlers and that too in subcontinent and his career and manjrekar career ended after the arrival of dada and dravid
What good is talent without discipline? He has become a drunkard and not even coaching any school team..He is not disciplined that brought him down..coming back to this innings..what did he achieve? Did he show intent to attack any bowler any moment..are we playing a test match to draw..when sachin departed it was 95 runs in 20 overs..we scored 120 odd for 8 wickets 35+ overs. He scored 10 of 29 balls ..is this a good inning?
@@girishdevadiga2981Do you even know what you are talking. People who saw the match live knows how tricky was that pitch. It was unusually turning. No one except Sachin stood at crease. It needed someone to stay at crease and kambli did that and started getting runs. Look at the order he came to bat. Without seeing all this, you are commenting. You said he is not training but that's also wrong. He trained many in Mumbai go and check. And you also said he drinks as if other players doesn't drink. Pity.
@@girishdevadiga2981bro I doubt if you can understand what situation the match was had he attacked the bowler's and lost his wicket entire blame would have been put on him. Accepted his attitude was not correct which led to his downfall but he was highly talented along with Amere and Sachin. but the later had more discipline and will power.
India have themselves to blame. The day before the match on pitch inspection Azhar inserted a key on the side of the pitch and it went it indicating the pitch soil was loose and it would tear down in the second innings. The next day in team meeting only Sidhu said we should bat first and not worry abt Jayasuriya & Kalu explosive batting. But the whole team was scared of Sri Lanka openers and Jayasuriya innings against England in quarter finals gave them nightmares. Sachin said we should chase as we are good players of spin. India was concerned abt Sri Lanka strength and forget their own strength. It was Azhar & Sachin decision to bat second. Sanjay Manjrekar openly said this and till date Azhar & Sachin kept quite fearing backlash from fans.
Ghanta who told u all this Manjrekar told no support for Kambli!!! If Sachin had stayed 10 more overs India was in for a Win!!! Lankas were 1/3 at a stage if they had lost more wickets India would have had an Upper hand!!!
I honestly can’t understand how Sachin Tendulkar was batting on this same pitch with ease and scoring fast while every other Indian batsman was struggling and making every ball look unplayable. Sachin Tendulkar was no doubt super talented but the other Indian batsmen played extremely poorly.
New ball was the best time to play and he was miles above the rest in ODIs back then. His wicket dented the team morally most of the times especially under pressure
I still remember that dark night, the way the pitch started behaving after Sachin's dismissal.It had become a death wicket for the batters.Wickets kept on falling and India lost this match..I wish India had battersfirst in this match, then certainly the result would have been different.
Difficult wicket to bat & vinod kambli showed fighting spirit,while sachin showed his excellence. Such wickets proves batsmen excellence. Recently found Virat not able to score on new york wicket while during golden era gavaskar had scored centuries on difficult wicket & against deadly bowlers also during that era many batsmen showed there fighting spirit while richards dominated. They were real masters & king.
The two persons I fell in love with after 1996 World Cup were Ajay Jadeja and Anil Kumble. I was just 16 then and these two remained my cricket heroes for many next years to come.
if Vinod Kambli knew something was wrong during this match, he should've told it right away instead of waiting so many years to say about wc 96 semi final being "FIXED."
I watched this live as a kid and never realiese how difficult the wicket was, watching this know I realise that Kambli could have easily been one of the all time great batsmen in cricket had he got more chances.
Still the comments in this post is clearly indication still after 28 years crossed bt Indians still in hidden tears inside their heart. Its like Taunton , Johhabesburg, Mumbai, Manchester, Mumbai never is a dettol or savlon in this Kolkata wound ...
The turning point of the match is sidhu's catch taken by jaysuriya. It was a great catch. Sidhhu was pillar in that wc. His innings against Zimbabwe and Pakistan was turning point for India. Initially he was dropped after being dismissed by an unplayable delivery from Curtly Ambrose
Seems like the match happened yesterday. Everyone was happy when Jayasurya got out early in the innings but Aravinda made a difference in the batting. Bad luck for India. 28 years and still counting.
Kambli was waiting to finish jayasurya 10 over which was turning more than Warne. But I don't think kambli could make this game in favour of India. Other side wicket were falling down. Bad luck for India
विनोद कांबळी, तुम्ही अतिशय प्रतिभावान क्रिकेटर होतात, इतके की तुम्हाला सचिन तेंडुलकर पेक्षा जास्त प्रतिभावान म्हणता येईल. आजही तुमच्या ते जबरदस्त षटकार आणि टेस्टमध्ये केलेल्या २०० धावा आठवतात. पण तुम्ही अनावश्यक वादांमध्ये अडकून स्वतःचं लक्ष गमावलं. तुमच्या करिअरचा असा दु:खद शेवट झाला, आणि त्यासाठी तुम्हीच जबाबदार आहात. यश पचवता आलं नाही, आणि त्याचं परिणाम म्हणून तुमचं लक्ष विचलित झालं. भारतासाठी तुमचं लक्ष कमी होणं ही मोठी हानी आहे.
Only he stood after Sachin for victory. Other players threw there wickets. Vinod Kambli ❤unsung hero of Indian Cricket❤. If other players made parterership with him in this match Vinod would won this game.
I was 9 years Old that time. Felt bad for Kambli, that time I was not aware of Batting Technique and skills. Now Today I saw playing Kambli very good Spin in a very easy way. I remember my brother saying, Kambli tika hua hai wo jeeta dega agar kisi ne iska sath dia to.My Brother had very depth knowledge of Cricket....but Indian Crowd lost all their patience that day.😢
I knew India would lose, SL stunned the world and India earlier in group stages in new delhi. After that delhi match, I knew India wasn't any match for Sri Lanka in that world cup. Still remember at school, a 10 rupees bet with my classmate where I claimed SL would win in Calcutta. SL was just too good.
He was second after Sachin for most runs by India in the 1996 World Cup. Have you ever considered why he was excluded from the team for the next England tour?
He had a drinking problem. He had created quite a ruckus many times. Even Kambli had admitted he had a drinking problem. Kambli in an interview bragged that he scored a century the next day after he downed 10 pegs of hard liquor one night. Kambli to this day hasn't quit drinking, was arrested for DUI in 2022 and once hit his wife too in stupor.
@@aditfinance Come on man as if others didn't drink in the team. Please read the question in the original comment before giving a pre meditated answer on kambli. Question in the original comment is, except sachin and kambli no one stood and attempted to save India in this semi-final match. Then why was kambli dropped after this match? That's the question. Did selectors suddenly wake up and remember his drinking problem after this match and dropped him after the match? Lol that must be funny.
Sri Lanka played well. Give credit where it is due. This is not fixed. We lost to a good team. Sachin did his best, and others also needed to contribute but the pitch started turning square and Sri Lankans were tight on the field. They deserve to win.
Md Azharuddin doing the what he would have done in 75% of matches he played , Sold his team , I was a 11 year kid then still picking up cricket and this was a heartbreak !!!
Finally after 20+ years when I have the courage the look back at the match.. I realise they gave their spinners too much respect.. it wasn’t really that big a turner as we heard back then..
Come on! India never had this except when the first 2 early wickets fell for Sri Lanka in tne same over when India bowled. After school, i was shocked to hear that SL made 251, which was very challenging by 1996 standards. Given the bowlers of SL, India never had it.
am sorry to say but there was no intent from anyone to score runs, they were completely down and out after sachin's wicket. In fact I still dont understand how they decided to bat second, maybe they were wating for due. As I heard sri lanka was chasing better but still it semi final and 250 at that use to be match winning scores . By the way Sri Lanka did win the Match in final agaist Aus.
That was very very sad !! The Indians had lost in the mind before they lost on ground. Pitch was absolutely doing nothing so long as Tendulkar was on ground… and when he went, it suddenly changed ! See the mindset of batsmen subsequently… आप मैच पहले ही दिमाग़ से हार चुके थे
Without Sachin on that day, India could have easily balled out less than 100. Purely wrong call at the Toss,India lost a World Cup Again similar to 2023 debacle
No doubt Srl lanka was best team in 90s no point in discussing Abt Kambli , After Sachin wicket ,any oppostion would gain the confidence to win thats what happened
The situation was quite bad, but I’m not sure modern teams would have panicked as much. People like Dhoni would’ve tried to take the game deep. Kambli was better than the others in that he was able to survive, but maybe even he could have rotated the strike a bit more. In any case, he did not deserve to be dropped for this.
Very sub par wicket for a world Cup semifinal. This was the first time India dug their own grave by preparing such a substandard wicket. They repeated the same mistake during the 2023 world Cup final. The final match wicket at Ahmadabad was such during the first inning.
There are certain assumptions. India is a world beater at home. Not in One dayers. Not in T20 s. The nature of the contest is such that team that played better on that particular day wins. Indian think tank read the pitch wrong, and did not select the spinners. And then after having won the toss, they decided to bowl first as if chasing in a World cup Semi-final is a piece of cake, that too against Sri Lanka who has two batting all rounders who bowl spin, and two main spinners, which means 40 over of the game. They made a mistake and paid the price.
entire pitch was dug-out for opening ceremony featuring Aishwarya Rai.... complete relayed track and no games played untill semis in 96 edition... india's decision to bowl first mainly because of what happened to them in group stages...
The reason it hurt so much in 96 was because India defeated the hot favourite pakistan just before this match and was just 2 match away from becoming world champion. They conveniently forgot that the same team embarrassed them in the group matches just a few days ago. The pitch was a factor but the over confidence caused them this match and ultimately the world cup.
I watched this Match, Live Bro. At that time It was really very difficult for any team to defeat Srilanka Yes, Sachin Is no doubt a best Batsman. But Lambskin was even better than Sachin
Kambli is fighting but after match indian cricket politics and match fixing hit the kambli Not only kambli lot of indians and i also crying that time and now also while posting this 😞😞
दर्शकअगर थोड़ा सा शांत रहते और और यह मैच पूरा होनेदेते, मैं मानता हूं कांबली भारत को यह मैच जीत वा देते 1996 का वर्ल्ड कप फाइनल ऑस्ट्रेलिया और भारत के बीच में होता,
I still dont understand why he was dropped from the team after this attemptive match saving innings. Only player after sachin who scored reasonably that day... and remained not out.
As a srilankan fan i must say, he was trying his best to protect fall of wickets from a one side..he was easily picking any kind of a spin even at a damaged spinning turf..he was

Dharmasena, Murali both chuckers 😢
Ofcourse. Clear jerk
entire pitch was dug-out for opening ceremony featuring Aishwarya Rai.... complete relayed track and no games played untill semis in 96 edition... india's decision to bowl first mainly because of what happened to them in group stages...
Wkt keeper and batsman twin brothers
The reason it hurt so much in 96 was because India defeated the hot favourite pakistan just before this match and was just 2 match away from becoming world champion. They conveniently forgot that the same team embarrassed them in the group matches just a few days ago. The pitch was a factor but the over confidence caused them this match and ultimately the world cup.
That bowler current umpire kumara dharmasena
Kambli tried his best
How may here watched this match live?
I watched this Match, Live Bro. At that time It was really very difficult for any team to defeat Srilanka
Yes, Sachin Is no doubt a best Batsman. But Lambskin was even better than Sachin
Kambli is fighting but after match indian cricket politics and match fixing hit the kambli
Not only kambli lot of indians and i also crying that time and now also while posting this 😞😞
I think Vinod Kambli was a better batsman. I think the pitch was bad. The pitch determinated very badly
Umpire Kumar Dharmasena is bowling 😳
दर्शकअगर थोड़ा सा शांत रहते और और यह मैच पूरा होनेदेते, मैं मानता हूं कांबली भारत को यह मैच जीत वा देते 1996 का वर्ल्ड कप फाइनल ऑस्ट्रेलिया और भारत के बीच में होता,
R u crazy ???
I still dont understand why he was dropped from the team after this attemptive match saving innings. Only player after sachin who scored reasonably that day... and remained not out.
