Waiting a riveting war
ISLAMABAD. Feb 6: The 1996 World Cup. like all those that have preceded it. will not only be about the crowning of new world champions. It will also centre on the X-factor — the special ingredient that wins the trophy. reports AFP.
It could be a player, or simply a decisive moment, that settles the tournament. Invariably, it is the drama of the final that is remembered rather than what has gone before.
Who now remembers Gary Gilmour's six wickets for 14 runs in the 1975 semifinal against England, followed by his crucial partnership with Dough Walters after his side, chasing 96. had slumped to 39 for six?
Mr and Mrs Gilmour, probably, the odd relation and a neighbour, for everybody else. 1975 was about Clive Lloyd's long-handled 102 in the final, followed by the electric fielding of Vivian Richards and five Australian run-outs.
New Zealanders may remember a misfield, a dropped chance or a miscue four years later that led to their nine-run semifinal defeat to England but again, for most, the defining episode came in the climax as Richards plundered 138, runs off the home side's depleted attack.
There are plenty of prime candidates this time to follow in the footsteps of those
great West Indians
Trinidadian Brian Lara — who came close to Richards' one-day international record when scoring 169 off 129 balls at Sharjah this yetr — will head the fist of batsmen likely to play the central role.
Shane Warne, shadowed by Mustaq Ahmed and Anil Kumble, represent the spinners’ interests while the like of Allan Donald. Craig McDermott and Waqar Younis will try to make it a trophy decided by pace.
The all-rounders, however. always get two bites at each cherry.
Mohinder Amarnath went down in Indian history in 1983 with three wickets for
12 runs off seven overs that was good enough to stop a West Indian hat trick
Perhaps, however, the key moment of that tournament had been provided by the bookies, who had riled the Indiana by making them 66-1 outsiders before the off.
Another all-rounder. Pak istan's current captain Wasim Akram, claimed the man-of-the-match accolade four years ago in Australia. Others would argue it should have gone to the rain god for his earlier tournament theatrics.
Wasim smashed 33 runs off 19 balls against England at Melbourne, then uprooted the stumps of Allan Lamb and Chris-Lewis with successive deliveries to settle the issue
The rain had Just as much say in that success, washing out a crucial earlier game after Pakistan had been bowled out by England for a paltry 74.
If the English felt ag-Eieved after the final, the >uth Africans had even more cause after playing them in the semifinals.
They needed 22 off 13 balls to win when the rain came down, allowing a controversial rule to tome into play. With timelost. the total was scaled down to 22 off 7 balls and by the time the South Africans had taken guard again it wa/22 off one delivery. Not a happy way to miss out of a World Cup Anal.
/JTould-be stars in 1996 should, however, not be blinded by World Cup fame. Test match glory forms the bulk of cricket's history while one-day exploits can melt in the memory like the softest snow.
