The reverse on the first wicket, man what would we do to have that these days.

Persist with the same ball for 50 overs and not change it at 34 overs.

When pakistanis do it they call it tampering, when others do it they call it reverse swing

Not really. Wasim was incredibly skillful. But they tampered tf out of the ball. Idm it I think ball tampering should be allowed.

If only Pakistan's batting did not implode in the final like the way they did, they had a very real chance.

Umm.. they were actually quite a bit the  favourites going into the final.

This was the last game Aus lost in an odi world cup until the 2011 edition, where they lost again to Pak. They won 3 world cups in between.

That nonchalant run-up.

u/missyousachin 5d ago

I still very much believe 1999 final was corrupted by Pakistan players. The way they got out really will make anyone suspicious. The justice qayyum inquiry commission never found any proof regarding this match really makes u wonder what they must have done to hide all this things
