00:00Hello and welcome to the highlights of the finals of the Singha Akai Cup 1997.
00:05We've got a lovely day here in Saja and everyone's expecting a fascinating game of cricket.
00:10Well, you know that Pakistan are playing against Sri Lanka.
00:13Let's have a look at the teams first of all.
00:15That's the Pakistan line-up.
00:17Ramiz Raja back in the side.
00:18Sajid Ali is going to be opening the batting with him.
00:21Ejaz, he's back in the team too.
00:23Salim Malik has made some runs and looks dangerous at the moment.
00:26Inzamam, well, we know that he's made some runs and batting in that middle order position is a very good player.
00:33Mohan Khan's in form.
00:34Wazim Akram, unfortunately, he's got a bit of a virus and currently got a little bit of a temperature.
00:39But he's in the side.
00:40A 3D dangerous down the order, although I still think he should be going in at number one.
00:45And then the bowlers.
00:46Saklein and Mushtaq and Wakar Yunus.
00:49So a pretty strong Pakistan line-up.
00:51Sri Lanka, Sanat Jaya Saria.
00:53They are sticking with Kaluwatharana as well at number two.
00:56Marvin Adaparu has played pretty well on occasions.
00:59Very good player of spinners.
01:00Aravinda's in fine fettle at the moment.
01:02Smashing it all over the place.
01:04Lots of batting, haven't they?
01:05Arjuna in the middle order.
01:07Mahanama and Tilakaratna too really do a good job down the order there.
01:11And, of course, then they've got the two spinners.
01:14Murulidirn and Dharamasina.
01:16And Chamindivas getting so experienced and so good these days when it really matters.
01:22And the other man, Sanjeeva Da Silva.
01:25So two pretty strong sides here.
01:27The toss was won by Pakistan.
01:29They very quickly decided to bat first.
01:32This pitch looks very good to me.
01:34I suppose they'll be looking at scoring something in the order of, what, perhaps 225, 250.
01:39If they get 250, that'll be a good score.
01:42We're going to pick up the action now in the fourth over.
01:44And Sanjeeva is running into bold to Raja.
01:48And the commentators, Ian Chappell, Ranjit Fernando.
01:55Well, he's got the right one this time.
01:58Ah, that feels better, he says.
02:02That's a lovely shot by Ramiz Raja.
02:04Just leaning into it, everything in place.
02:07He certainly found the new bat to his liking.
02:10The last time there was a change of ball, he was out first ball to it.
02:13And here you are, that's Ramiz Raja.
02:16Perfectly played right on the centre of the blade.
02:21Just wide of Tilakaratna at first slip and away for a boundary.
02:29Outside edge.
02:30And Arjuna, he's picked up a good catch and an excellent piece of captaincy there.
02:39He specifically moved himself into that position and it was a very sharp catch.
02:44Indeed, very intelligent and clever cricket by Arjuna Ranatunga.
02:48Sensing Ramiz Raja going for the drive and that he might hit it officially.
02:53Positioning himself at mid-off, short mid-off and picking up that catch very well.
03:01Very good bit of cricket.
03:02Pakistan losing their first cricket for 19 runs.
03:05He's smashed that one away.
03:10That's a lovely shot.
03:11Will it go all the way?
03:12Yes, it does.
03:13Well, I think Aravinda was a little slow down there.
03:16Good shot, that one from Ejaz.
03:18Beautifully played by Ejaz.
03:21Just Wade off the fielder.
03:25That's driven away nicely.
03:26It'll go to the fence for four.
03:28What a beautiful cover drive.
03:31He waited for that one and opened the face on the ball as it arrived.
03:35It was a little overpitched, asking to be punished.
03:39But oh, what a shot.
03:40That's the shot of the day so far.
03:48He's got that away and it could well be four.
03:51Yes, it is.
03:54Lovely shot, danced away, made room for himself and they're happy, aren't they?
04:01That's lofted.
04:02Has he got it?
04:03He has.
04:04Is it out?
04:05Telekaratne takes the catch and he's going.
04:09Saeed Ali, when he was set, pushing it on and a leading edge.
04:17The ball going through straight.
04:19The turn which he was expecting not there.
04:22And Telekaratne just flinging on to that catch.
04:25Pakistan, 68 for two.
04:30And he's got him with the arm ball.
04:32That's a very clever piece of bowling.
04:3587 for three.
04:36Pakistan losing the wicket of Ejaz.
04:39And there it is, the arm ball coming in.
04:41Probably he got the inside edge.
04:43I think there he is very cross with himself.
04:46I think he did get the inside edge.
04:48And there is Jay Assyria showing his delight.
04:5587 for three.
05:04That's very powerfully struck.
05:05And Jay Assyria there, putting it outside the off stump.
05:14But Inzimam made absolutely sure that he connects it.
05:1796.
05:18Big hit.
05:19And very accurate.
05:20It's come right through one of the portholes.
05:21And almost cleaned up our Pakistan commentator, Jussi Mujahid, who was heading right in his direction.
05:38There it is, Inzimam coming down the ricket with the full swing of the bat.
05:45Oh, he's hit that one away down towards square leg.
05:47Oh, and it's badly missed.
05:49Well, the ball always spins down there.
05:53And you won't see this fellow make too many mistakes.
05:57He's a magnificent cricketer, but he got foxed on this occasion.
06:01A lot of spin on this ball and it bounced behind him.
06:04Shaminda won't enjoy watching this replay.
06:06I think he was first going in the left direction and the ball just spun on him.
06:13There you see.
06:14Not Shaminda's fault, really, there.
06:15Down the wicket he comes in.
06:16Yeah, this is going to be out.
06:17Will it be out?
06:18Got him.
06:19Yes, he's gone.
06:20No, he's dropped it.
06:21Oh, dear, dear, dear.
06:22I think Murali sensed that Inzimam wanted to have a go here.
06:27He tossed it up for him.
06:28This is the drop catch again.
06:29Marvin Adapadu coming in.
06:30His eyes on the ball.
06:31And whack, down she goes.
06:32Well, he didn't really judge that one very well.
06:33Oh, that's a wonderful shot.
06:34Just led back and hammered into that.
06:49Four more for Inzimam.
06:52This partnership certainly getting into dangerous proportions from Sri Lanka's point of view.
06:58Into Mahmul Haq quickly latching onto that.
07:01Shaminda was going short and making no mistake into the mid-wicket boundary.
07:07Oh, that's a wonderful shot from Salim.
07:13Men out both at mid-wicket and at long on and he bisected them perfectly.
07:19A glorious shot there by Salim Malik.
07:23Once again, using his feet, making it extremely difficult for the Sri Lankan bowlers.
07:28Even Muralitharan who's so tight to keep him quiet.
07:31Hitting it on the half volley straight through that mid-wicket gap.
07:34Well bowled.
07:35A great counter from a tremendous bowler.
07:44Muralitharan strikes.
07:45And that's the end of a tremendous little cameo from Salim Malik.
07:55Muralitharan's persistent length playing off.
07:57He's kept a cool head.
07:58Seeing Salim Malik coming down, once again maintaining that good accuracy and line.
08:03and Salim Malik beaten and bold.
08:06So Pakistan, 185 for four.
08:17He's gone.
08:22Mahanama gets a tremendous catch.
08:26And Muralitharan has struck once more.
08:29And what a difference a day makes.
08:31Mohan, top scorer yesterday.
08:33Now goes for just a single.
08:35And Sri Lanka have come back well here.
08:38The brilliance of Mahanama on the field coming to the fore.
08:42Once again, Muralitharan a flight to delivery.
08:45Mohan Khan hitting it straight in the direction of Mahanama.
08:50The ball falling well short.
08:51But Mahanama just flinging himself in front and hanging on to that.
08:57Samoyan Khan's gone for one.
08:59And Pakistan, 187 for five.
09:05And Dharmazena strikes.
09:07And Akram has failed again with the bat.
09:11Unwell.
09:12But that looked like a lapse of concentration.
09:15And that's the sixth wicket down.
09:17And he's gone for three.
09:19Good bowling by Dharmazena.
09:20Coming round the wicket.
09:21Running it into Wasi Makram.
09:22Who was going for the swatted shot.
09:23And was bowled leg stump.
09:24So Pakistan have now lost their sixth wicket for 195.
09:28Now talking of hitting.
09:29Away it goes.
09:30But.
09:31Darmazena, the fielder.
09:32It's four.
09:33They're not absolutely sure.
09:34Was it four or six?
09:35Six, he says.
09:36Darmazena, the fielder.
09:37It's four.
09:38They're not absolutely sure.
09:39Was it four or six?
09:40Six, he says.
09:41Craffridi living up to his reputation.
10:00Heaving our wieder this hold straight over his head.
10:06his head, the ball going miles up in the sky, there you are, could see it coming
10:14down, Dharmasein ande, this time he might be out, no!
10:23Sajiba De Silva drops a really elementary catch and Afridi gets away with murder there.
10:31Afridi heaving that full toss and Sajiba De Silva getting under it, a regulation catch,
10:38Butterfingers and it's down. This is Chamindavas to Afridi.
10:43Middle stump, that's the one they wanted. Shahid Afridi can be a really dangerous batsman,
10:54he's slogged across the line of that one, missed it and Chamindavas has got him.
10:59Yes, he was looking for that big gap at mid wicket but Chamindavas too accurate, a very
11:06good length despite the fact that Afridi came out of his crease and he's hit the middle stump.
11:11So Pakistan, 208 for seven.
11:17That's in the air, high in the air, collision time, no he's got him, well taken!
11:22The calm, cool experience of Aravinda de Silva. Despite all the noise, he managed to make it clear that it was his and he went around underneath it and caught it beautifully.
11:36Wahkar certainly doesn't pick the change of pace.
11:43Charmindavas called off there by Aravinda, he's yelled out that's mine and he was certainly in the better position to take it, well judged catch.
11:53And Wahkar Yunus just not picking that slower delivery, or not picking any of them at all really, and he's gone for one.
12:00And 14. So, it's now Sri Lanka's turn to go out there and see what they can do. I'm certainly looking forward to seeing Jaya Saria and Kalu with Orna.
12:08Let's pick up the action for the Sri Lankan innings.
12:15Oh, he's hit that one, it's in the air, he's out, that's it, Oliver, got him! Yes, Kalu is out!
12:21Went for the hook shot straight away, it's spooned up in the air, Ejaz Ahmed doesn't drop many catches,
12:29and little Kalu really does look a sad young man, wandering off the ground, out court, hooking for nought.
12:40Well, he certainly wasn't pushing to get off the mark, and once again, Wazi Makram has beaten him for pace,
12:46the ball hitting high up on the bat right near the splice, and a simple catch there for Ejaz Ahmed.
12:54He raises the hands like an umpire would do for six. Sri Lanka, one for one.
13:01Wakar, charging in.
13:06Oh, that's well played, through the offside field. Marvin Adapadu, could this be his day? Lovely shot.
13:14Well, this is the way that Adapadu played in his 90-odd against Pakistan.
13:24He came out in a very confident, aggressive mood, and played absolutely magnificently.
13:29Oh, he's got that one away down the ground, that's a good shot, it's running away over this fast outfield,
13:38that'll go all the way to the fence, and what's more, to relieve just a little bit of the pressure.
13:44Marvin Adapadu, playing a lovely straight drive.
13:47Well, he looks a good player when he's playing aggressively. Nice straight bat there. No problem at all.
14:00In the air. Oh, it's gone straight through his hands. Well, that could be a very expensive miss.
14:13Could be double damage to Pakistan. Not only has he dropped Jayasariya, but he's also damaged his finger, and on his right hand.
14:21He flicked away on the onside, and that's well played. Lovely timing.
14:30Well, we know that he likes that, and you might see a field change here.
14:34They might bring that leg slip in and push someone back.
14:37And that's got to be close. He's gone.
14:42Waqar Yunus strikes again, and that's the end of Jayasariya.
14:52Pakistan needed that wicket, and Waqar Yunus delivering. Sanat Jayasariya hitting right across the line.
14:59He knew he was going as soon as it hit. Right in front, low down on the shin.
15:04So Sanat Jayasariya is gone, and Sri Lanka are 2 for 35.
15:19And he middles it straight away. And there's another confidence builder.
15:25And that's four of his first delivery.
15:28He's flashed, and flashed well. And got it away for four.
15:39Great shot there by Mavanathapatu.
15:46Bad ball, punished. Four runs.
15:51Cannot bowl that line to such a great player as Aravinda.
15:54And Saclayan knows it.
16:01And that's out. He's gone.
16:04LBW, that ball, the wrong one, and keeping just a bit low.
16:10And Pakistan get a wicket. Atapatu is out.
16:14That is jubilation in the Pakistan camp.
16:17Sri Lanka have lost the wicket. Mavan Atapatu just out. There it is.
16:21Good delivery there from Mushtaga. It was pushed through a bit quicker.
16:26And Atapatu didn't get all that far forward.
16:29It hit him in line.
16:31And umpire Stephen Dunn was quite happy that it was going to go on and hit the stumps.
16:36Sri Lanka, 67 for three.
16:39Mushtag to De Silva.
16:41That's a bad delivery.
16:45Punished effectively. Beautiful shot.
16:48The front foot cover drive of a ball tossed up outside the off stump.
16:53And De Silva made a meal of that one.
16:55And once again, gets it to the four. Beautiful shot. He's hit that one through the covers.
17:03And into the fence it goes.
17:05Well, Arjuna Ranatunga looking very well, very good.
17:09He's starting to play a captain's knockout.
17:11Oh, he's whacked that one through the covers for four. Don't move anybody.
17:20And the crowd have only just picked it up.
17:23Well, everyone was looking for the ball. No one moved.
17:26And they only picked it up when it hit the fence.
17:29Gives you some idea of how hard he hit that one.
17:31Beautiful shot.
17:32And a chance. Salim Malik has done it again.
17:38He's broken partnerships for Pakistan on many occasions.
17:43Probably none more important than this one.
17:48That really is a great blow for Sri Lanka.
17:51Arjuna Ranatunga getting out to Salim Malik.
17:55Salim Malik coming in and breaking the partnership.
17:58Just a dental delivery.
17:59And Ranatunga playing too early straight back to him.
18:03And paying the penalty.
18:04So Sri Lanka lose Ranatunga.
18:06Four wickets down from 1.33.
18:13And trouble at the bowler's end.
18:15If they can pick it up in time.
18:18And Mahanama is home.
18:20Well, that's a missed opportunity for Pakistan.
18:24That was really disaster if Mahanama was out.
18:29Because Arvinder De Silva was struggling out in the middle there.
18:32Mahanama realising that Arvinder was the batsman in form.
18:36Wanted to get to the danger area.
18:38And that's Mahanama running towards it.
18:40But the bowler who was behind the wicket.
18:42Not clinging on to it.
18:44And Mahanama gets alive.
18:46Down the leg side.
18:48That's whipped away.
18:49Is it going to go for four?
18:50What a good shot.
18:51Look at the Sri Lankan flags.
18:53Beautiful shot from Mahanama.
18:56That one was offline.
18:57Whipped it off his hip.
18:59And it has gone screaming away to the boundary.
19:02Ah!
19:03In the air.
19:04And that's it.
19:05Gone.
19:06They needed that wicket.
19:07Well, Mahanama trying to relieve the pressure a little bit.
19:11Has gone for a straight hit down the ground.
19:14And unfortunately, he's top edge the ball straight to backward point.
19:18So, what a blow this is.
19:20That brings out a new batsman.
19:21This game's not over yet.
19:24The game was drifting away from Pakistan.
19:26And that's just what Sri Lanka didn't want.
19:30Mahanama trying to go to the top.
19:32And holding out to Mustaf.
19:33So, Sri Lanka, 1-93 for five.
19:39Gotcha!
19:40In the air.
19:41He's gone.
19:42Yes, he's gone.
19:43Backward point again.
19:44Tilakaratna has been caught out at backward point.
19:48Once again, Ejaz Ahmed into the action.
19:50Saklain got that one to spin away.
19:53It's not over yet.
19:55The Pakistanis are in the air.
19:57The Sri Lankans on this ground have gone very quiet.
19:59Here it is again.
20:01And Sri Lanka looked as if they were in front.
20:04Tilakaratna goes.
20:06Ejaz just holding on to a hard square drive.
20:10And Saklain has struck.
20:11So, Sri Lanka, 204 for six.
20:14Wakaar again.
20:16To Aravind up.
20:18Dead straight.
20:19Whipped it away on the onside.
20:20This is going down towards the fence.
20:22Back for the second again.
20:23Lovely shot from Aravindar.
20:25Beautiful timing.
20:27As flags are flying down there.
20:29The Sri Lankans are loving this.
20:31Boy, there's a smile on a million faces down there.
20:35Sri Lanka needs three or six balls.
20:37Tosses it up.
20:40They're going for the single.
20:41The midline's too deep.
20:43Well, I just don't understand that.
20:45So, they've given that single away.
20:49That's good cricket at this point by the Sri Lankans.
20:51Dalam Senna running through with the shot.
20:54De Silva responding very quickly.
20:56And realizing that the field was a little far too behind.
21:02I think Aravindar's going to finish this off now.
21:04Two to get off.
21:07Five balls.
21:08He's on strike.
21:11Cuts it in the air.
21:12Over the top of the head field.
21:13That's it.
21:14Beautifully played by Aravindar.
21:16It's running away to the fence for four.
21:18Won't quite get there.
21:20He's got three.
21:21And that's the end of that.
21:23What a magnificent game.
21:26The Sri Lankans are dancing in the aisles.
21:30The Pakistanis are stunned.
21:35So, a great game of cricket.
21:37Tremendous tournament.
21:38And at the end of the day, Sri Lanka made 215 for six.
21:42And overtook that score of 214 by Pakistan.
21:46You saw earlier that Inzaman played very well.
21:48But really, at the end of the day, this match belonged to Aravindar de Silva.
21:52A magnificent 87 not out.
21:54Roshan Mahanama made 31.
21:56Valuable runs they were too.
21:57Comes in at a hard time.
21:59And Marvin Adapadu, 29.
22:01He's growing in stature as a batsman.
22:03Those are the figures, the best figures for the Pakistanis.
22:06Nothing much to write home about.
22:08But, one has to say, they really looked down and out.
22:11But they fought back and very nearly got up there at the end.
22:15So Sri Lanka, one by four wickets.
22:16And everyone, I'm sure, enjoyed the game.
22:20It was fantastic.
22:21Good conditions.
22:22Lovely outfield.
22:23We hope you've enjoyed the pictures coming from Saisha.
22:25We look forward to your company next time round.
22:28We hope you could have enjoyed the till pretty good to see you on the show.
22:32String watermelons guy.
22:34We hope you don't forget to.
22:36We hope everyone will win a quarter ok.
22:40That was a good day.
22:42We hope you have your plans.
22:47And then you can see them in a lifetime.
22:50And lastly, we don't win an ice skating composer.
22:52What does a great day?
22:53We hope all the games are only possible.
