Dilip Vengsarkar went to beach ate a fish dish and had a bad tummy. He was the best Indian batsman during that time. My uncle told me about this incident. Supposedly Mumbai Mafia did not want another Kapil success. There was a big anticipation about India vs Pakistan final. unfortunately both shat the bed.
Got to know Sachin and Kambli were ball boys for this match, 4 years later they played world cup together. Gavaskar opening instead of Shastri was blunder he would rarely score runs under Kapils captaincy, what was Chandrakant pandit and Kiran More doing together? backup keeper
There was a conspiracy theory that sunny got out early as he didn't want to go play at eden gardens. I don't think it's true. Pandit played because vengsarkar got injured.
BBC production quality was much poorer than channel 9 of Australia, but it's commentary team was in my view superior, specially considering that overall theme and mood of that era.
If Colonel vengsarkar has been fit for this match we had won that semifinal . because Azharuddin has played brilliantly he needs support from other end ..vengsarkar Azharuddin combo had won that match
We weren’t a bad side. Especially with Gooch opening the batting. Gatting as captain. Don’t forget we’d beaten the West Indies twice in the group stage. All without our best player in Ian Botham. Great achievement considering what great players India had in Gavaskar, Kapil Dev, Shastri, Azhuruddin etc.
Of course, it was a good side, that's why you reached the finals. Botham had declined to tour India earlier too, calling India, unhygienic. Sweet revenge for your semi loss to India in 1983
My father used to told me, it was almost 90% sure tha, india and Pakistan were sure to play the final... The tickets went for hundreds of rupess, which was high amount at that time... Eden Gardens was sold out, although nobody wanna see Australia and England play...
video quality is very poor , I have seen live match in 1987 but that's time good quality picture in black and white tv my neighbor. Is it improved !!!!!
1987 chetan sharma and ravishankar jaydratha shastri a big mistake of indian team. now ravishankar shastri obtained crores of rupees by giving tips.AT that time shastri failed to reach in final.1987 to 2014 27 years now shastri boss of team india.
Actually India had this match in their hands.. but they dug their own grave.. well set batsmen like Srikant and Kapil Dev just threw their wickets away. . But the shocking dismissal was of Sunil Gavaskar who was bowled to a ball he shud never have very very surprising
kapil dev nikhanj ki ek dikkat thi bowler toh aache they par batting woh virender sehwag ki tarah karte they unke andar tuk tuk karne ka caliver nahi tha jo aaj rahul aur kohli ke paas hain woh tha siddhu tha har ball boundery paar
gavaskar,prabhakar,chetan sharma and ravishankar jaydratha shastri i think they play 20-20 cricket match. no shot selection no technique only play cricket go and out like 2 minutes maggi noddles. Technique was coming after world cup 20-20 2007
shastri toh last tak tha maamla kapil dev ke out honey ke baad bigda. chetan sharma ne rush blood waala shot khela balls thi match nikal sakta tha iss world cup ke baad bahut se players ne retirement hi le lia.maninder, chetan sharma, gavaskar 1992 ka world cup nahi kheley. sidhu injured ke chalte nahi khela.
RAVI SHANKAR JAYADRITHA SHASTRI TOH TUK TUK EXPERT THA WOH BHI 50 OVER POORA NAHI KHELA. TUK TUK AREY WORLD CUP 1992 MEIN TEST INNINGS KHELI ENG AUR AUS KE SAAMNE
When you watch Mike Gatting bat, particularly when in full flow, there is no telling that he's not in anyway among the highest run getters of the late 20th century, in the league of Border, Miandad, Gooch etc. A big underachiever. A series of misfortunes and personal attitude issues.
Sri Kanth, 31(55) Siddu, 22(40) wasted A lot of Balls Azhar, 64(74) Pandit, 24(30) Kapil, 30(24) Enhanced the scoring rate Shastri was playing a support to Azhar till the latter was at crease. However, after Azhar got out, More, Sent ahead of Prabhakar struggled in the first four deliveries and was ten brilliantly caught n bowled by Hemmings By the time Prabhakar joined Shastri, asking rate was on the rise. Prabhakar, though a lower middle order batsman, was Never a pinch hitter And although Shastri tried his best to increase the scoring rate, wickets started to tumble at the other end
27 balls baaki thi aur aaj yeh saare gyaan detey hain aur croro kamaate hain interview commentary karke. shame 50 over toh khelo 50 over 45.3 over mein all out. kapil gavaskar, shastri mentor bantey hain mentor
