do love that day's cricket 10000 times better than that of present day's,those big grounds, those 4 runs taking by running, those ever green commentary.. ritchi benaud, tony greig, bill lawrey, ian chappel, those channel nine cameras finally those loving crowd joking team may....badly missing those days..
So many 3s they have taken. Those times all aussies grounds were so big and they all have become so small. I am a 90s kid and I still love those days of cricket thousand times better than today's.
@@mandarraorane Renovations. SCG was pretty long in straight boundaries. The sight screen used to be inside the playing ground . Then they brought forward the boundaries in all grounds for this change. SCG and Adelaide were always smaller in comparison to other Gs. They became even shorter after initial sight screen construction and kept becoming shorter and shorter after years of fiddling with stands to accommodate more people
@@techBuffy Thank u so much for your explanation, I remember in the 90s Ansett Australia test series where players used to run 4 runs, but it's difficult to find it these days. Runs are easily scored, for me 90s were the golden years of cricket as each and every team had great players including WI, SL and ZIm, The boundary and fence were the same and there was equal competition between bat and ball..
@@mandarraorane yes pretty much. In Australian grounds like MCG you can still run 4 in Tests and that’s about it . Rough boundaries meant ball got scuffed up and there was early spin and reverse swing
IPL crowd is pop-corn generation. these crowds are never coming back. with internet, its never gonna hppen that MCG has 40,000 people on a weekday. Should look at Eden Gardens 1998 Test match crowd vs Aus. more than a lakh people. Also the Hero cup final crowd was insane
Actually it was the "plandemic" lockdowns which the prisoners [Aussie population] adhered to their master's [Aussie tyrannical government wardens]. Never really evolved the aussies
So happy to find this video. One of the most entertaining games I ever attended. The partnership between Dean Jones and Mark Waugh was pure joy to witness. Vale Dean Jones.
I agree and it was like two dominant era's crossed over literally in the middle. The Jones Years was coming to an end and Mark Waugh's top order domination was beginning. It showed in the partnership. As well as Jones played Waugh dominated the partnership and strike-rate of the pair. Seeing them two together when Jones' peak was coming to a close and Waugh's not long starting was good to witness. Great ODI top order batsmen both of them.
Those days were purely gold commentary by Tony greig bill Lawry Richie benaud on channel 9 was pure class used to wait for the Australian cricket summer during that era
@@vaadaenmacchi used to get up early whenever Australia was playing cricket in their home and listen to the comments made by channel 9 in the 1990s to 2000s before the idiots of star sports stopped airing matches through channel 9 especially the India matches so biased they were it's good that cricket.com.au used to upload these highlights and I still get goosebumps with the in-depth analysis of channel 9 fox and Sony should enter a deal and air matches with their logo as well as Sony channels logo
@@soumenchatterjee35757 yes the good ole channel 9 days! I remember the 5am starts to the test match and eagerly turning on the radio. And now Shane warne and co can’t stop talking even whilst the balls being bowled!
@@soumenchatterjee35757 Star Sports got the same feed as Channel-9, they aired thier own commentary. There was this Shaz n Waz show which was good initially. Most irate thing was Siddhu's commentary.. Gautam Bhimani as a presenter was good, as was Harsha Bhogle. Most disappointing was Sunny G, with all that Knowledge, he would call a hook , as a pull. An on drive as straight drive. The glance a flick and so on. That was 2003 tour by India. The 1999 feed had original commentary only. Channel 9 commentary had Bill L, Tony G, M Taylor, I Healy and R Benaud. All Legendary and all with perfect voices that fitted commentary. That said India have worst commentators. I still love good old days of Hindi commentary by Dilip Doshi
Considering the south African bowling attack, pith in Australia this Mark Waugh inning shows he was the best batsman in one day format in 1994. In test cricket Lara was the best 1994-95 when he scored 375 and 501*. Waugh made it look so easy - pace bowling of Donald n others. Amazing ..
4:44 The stumps at the strikers end aren't a ball width apart and therefore don't meet regulations and are also at different height that's why the bails are on a slope.
This was the start of the mark waugh era and Dean Jones dominance was coming to a end. Commentators were fantastic in every aspect loved listening to Richie Benaud and Tony Greig along with Bill Lawry and ian Chappell entertaining commentary now days were stuck with boring idiots especially Harsha Bogle and bloody Danny Morrison last but not least the f wit Kevin Pietersen
220 was a fighting total but 240+ was a winning total. if you had McDermot bowling 5 overs upfront, even 220 was a winning one. in 1995 Lanka would tour Australia & ODI cricket will change..
At this stage you hayden was a little bit down the list . Slater, Taylor and Elliot were ahead of him in tests. Slater lost Form in the one dayers and when they dropped halfway through the 95-96 Benson and hedges world series cup they moved mark Waugh up to open and he was an immediate success . Hayden really had to wait
