00:00In the dusty cauldron of Faisalabad, November 1989, Manoj Prabhakar etched his name into
00:06cricketing folklore with a lion-hearted spell.
00:09His career-best figure of 6 for 132, he toiled through 42.3 overs, sent down four maidens
00:16and never once let the intensity drop against arch-rival Pakistan in the second test.
00:22A craftman of control and grit, Manoj Prabhakar, a mainstay of Indian's attack throughout the
00:28early 1990s, bowled not just with the ball, but with every sinew of his being.
00:34His relentless rhythm, unwavering focus and burning desire made his spell, a compelling symphony
00:40of seam and swing.
00:41Let's relive this rare gem, an exhibition of stamina, skill and spirit.
00:58He was in the middle position, and Rameez Raja was out of the pavilion, and Rameez Raja
01:03was out of the pavilion for the first work in Bhairat.
01:06Rameez Raja committed to this drive for this talk, and his bad body was very high.
01:18And Srikan had a very good catch, a very well-judged catch.
01:24Rameez Raja.
01:30ڈیوی پیلی بیوی پیلے کہ منوش پر با کریں بولر
01:34بیٹ کو جسم سے بہت آگے لے گئے تھے
01:39بہت اچھا کیش تھا شری کانس کا جو بڑے مستحب فیلڈر ہیں
01:45کہ یہ پہلی وکیٹ پاکستان کی گری پاکستان کا سکور
01:49ایک سو پانچ ایک وکیٹ پر رفستان پر ملکہ
01:52اچھی گینٹی منوش پر با کر کی
01:55He again move he uhti bhi

02:26I'm gonna tell me to listen to the bar
02:29yeah
02:34I'm not just about tea
02:39I'm going to be
02:43I'm going to take a look at my bat and take a look at him.
02:49I'm done.
02:50Offs-tombs have been very far gained.
02:57And the other side of the leg before the appeal.
03:01Let's see.
03:03Yeah, let's see.
03:10Yeah.
03:12He was not out and that's why the ball was in the field of victory.
03:24Good game.
03:25Manoj Pabasar came.
03:29He came back and came back.
03:39Good game.
03:40Band and Jabayb Miyazad out.
03:41This is a very important game in the Bhaarank.
03:44The net could create a loop of this.
03:46This game is a unique to this.
03:48And if I was the target for Bhanuish,
03:50it could be good.
03:52This ball shot was stuck
03:55but it seemed very high.
03:57And Miyazad didn't realize it.
04:00There could be a lower rate also.
04:03This was made by Miyazad
04:06and getting out of it.
04:10। । । । । । । ।
04:40।

04:59।
05:00face back in the attack so the helmets are on and it's Prabhakar now
05:08to Aamir and that's the end of the innings caught and bowled
05:16so the fourth wicket is gone Prabhakar relief writ large on his face
05:22that was a fairly meek shot from Aamir Malik it was a shot of length and
05:32Aamir was trying to drive but gave a return catch to the bowler
05:43289 for the loss of four wickets now Pakistan Aamir faced 305 deliveries
05:56there is his dismissal
06:00off the back foot and straight back to the bowler who says thank you very much as he
06:08follows through and takes a simple catch
06:13I think
06:16Your trust or drive
06:17کوئی موقع نہیں کسی فیلڈر کے لیے چار رنس
06:24the test carrier کی تیروی نیس چینچری مکمل کی
06:28LBW کی اپیل اور واؤ
06:31بہل بہت میچی رہی
06:36ڈی ڈی پلے میں دیکھتے ہیں
07:08I'm sorry you can't get me safe Pakistan for
07:14so I'm sorry so much for some of that I'm going to
07:18get out of it I'm going to get out of it
07:23so I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry
07:29Well he touched that one beaten of course.
07:39Well I think Jishti Abbasi is bringing his left.
07:44It's up in the air and it's out, caught, caught by Tendulkar, a fine catch, very good catch.
08:04A fine running catch.
08:06So that's the end of the enjoyment that we've had after lunch from Haseem Akram.
08:13There you see a slower delivery, didn't quite catch hold of it, and a fine running catch
08:21by Tendulkar.
08:22No mistake.
08:23So the last man in, Saleem, delayed decision there by Karthar, he was quite prepared to
08:35let that go.
08:36And just as that ball was passing him, he hung his bat out.
08:41See that, see clearly, it was a very late time.
08:47That's his name, that's well bold, Saleem Jaffer, knowing very little about that, Kadir, an arm
09:04strike his end.
09:05That's the replay of that last delivery.
09:11And that is the declaration, is it?
09:21Yes.
09:22Yes it is.
09:23That is the declaration.
09:24Deprived the Kadir of his double.
09:25Double.
09:26Well you'll have to wait till Lahore for that declaration.
09:27So Pakistan's lead is 135, 135 is the lead.
09:30And waiting to give you the details of the Pakistan innings and a discussion with Maqsoud
09:37Nisarik Utsarik Utsarik Utsarik.
09:38Pakistan has batted quite well.
09:59Balling was Manoj Prabhakar's biggest strength.
10:13He cleverly used slower balls and could swing the ball both ways.
10:17On his best days, he was very dangerous with the new ball.
10:21He once dismissed Kepler vessels for zero in back-to-back test matches.
10:25The only time Kepler vessels got out for a duck while playing for South Africa in test
10:30or ODIs.
10:31But on a funny note, Prabhakar also got out to Allen Lab, who never took another test
10:37wicket in his career.
10:38Minos Prabhakar was also a handy bestman.
10:41He was later made an opening bestman playing slowly and carefully, which worked well during
10:46the 92-93 series against England.
10:49India won only one of his first 23 test matches but won 10 of his last 16.
10:55Sadly, his career ended on a low note when fans booed him in Delhi during the 95-96 World
11:02Cup.
11:03After he bowled very poorly against Sri Lanka, 4 over 47 runs with no wicket, he was dropped
11:08for the next match and soon retired.
11:10Later, he tried to expose others in the match-fixing scandal but in backfired when he was banned
11:17himself for being allegedly involved.
11:19After cricket, he stayed in the spotlight by entering politics, though he did not win
11:24any election.
11:25He later turned to coaching working with the Delhi team before coaching Rajasthan in 2009
11:31and 2010 season.
11:32Outside cricket, he runs a cosmetic company.
11:35Manoj Prabhakar featured in 39 test matches for India between 1984 and 1995.
11:41As a right of medium pacer, he claimed 96 wickets at an average of 37.30, with his best bowling

12:4920 centuries and 30 half centuries, with a high score of 229 and 74 catches.
12:56With the ball, he took 385 wickets at an average of 28.91, including 10 five wicket hauls and
13:04one time 10 wickets in a match, with the best bowling figure of 8 for 52.
13:08In domestic career, Manoj Prabhakar played 214 matches, scoring 4,118 runs at an average

13:34So Manoj Prabhakar was known for his versatility, often opening both the batting and bowling for
13:39India.
13:40He achieved this rare feat 45 times in ODIs and 20 times in tests, more than any other player
13:46in both formats.
