01:05Two runs, it was a good ball.
01:11It was a good ball.
01:14I can't play Tendulkar.

03:45And that's a great catch. Great catch.
03:54Rameez Raja bringing off an absolute blinder at square leg.
04:01That is the end of Manoj Prabhakar's innings. India are 284-9.
04:09Manindar. Manindar Singh out. There's Manindar, out for three.
04:16Court Rameez Raja, bold Imran Khan. He just faced 13 deliveries.
04:22I was wondering, Chishti, how you missed his beard.
04:29Too busy looking at the catch.
04:31There you saw that absolutely magnificent catch.
04:37Well, that was an excellent catch. No doubt about it.
04:43Oh, good delivery, huh? Yes. It kept a little low.
04:56Came in to the batsmen. There it is again.
05:00Swinging in very nearly one of the few which we have seen today.
05:08Pichishti.
05:13Now, catch the appeal.
05:15And Vibhraazdaan out.
05:17Imran's fourth wicket.
05:19And in this way, Baharat's earnings.
05:22Khatma and Imran Khan,
05:23they have taken the 4th wicket today.
05:28And Vibhraazdaan out.
05:31The best man.
05:33Baharat's earnings.
05:35It's pretty good.
05:36That's what is called the balling.
05:38That's why.
05:39Ibrahim Khan has done a very good balling.
05:41He has hit a lot of economic.
05:42A lot of his bowling is also established as well.
05:43And he also put out 4 tablespoons of the playoffs.
05:47And that's why he's done a lot as well.
05:49He used to be playing with batsmen,
05:50That they used to be playing with batsmen.
05:54He was the best player in the game and he was the best player in the game and he was the best player in the game.
06:09And I think that today I have the best best bowling game for him
06:16Because he has the length of line and length
06:22And this is also the best bowling game
06:29Like he has seen, he has the best bowling game
06:35He has been playing with a ball
06:39He has been playing with a ball
06:45He has been playing with a ball
06:51So he has a ball in the sky and a ball in the sky
06:58And a ball in the sky
07:03And a ball in the sky
07:06This is the ultimate batsman
07:09The baller is Imran Khan
07:12Bat and Pet catch
07:15This is a good cash
07:18They have cash and Vivek Rajdhan out
07:25Vivek Rajdhan who has a test cap from India
07:30This is a baller
07:33This is a scorecard
07:34After winning the match
07:37Although the match itself ended in a draw
07:40The memories of Imran Khan's falling linger like sweet candy for true cricket romantics
07:45By this stage of his career the raw pace of his youth had understandably ebbed
07:50Yet the precision of his line and length remained as sharp as ever
07:55In this spell he accounted for some notable scabs
07:58Dismissing a young Sachin Tendulkar alongside Kiran Moray, Maninder Singh and Vivek Rajdhan
08:04Each wicket bore testimony to his guile and understanding of the game
08:08Proving that even when speed diminishes class never fades
08:12So watching Imran Khan in those days was more than just about wickets
08:16It was about witnessing a master who understood the rhythm of test cricket
08:21His presence alone carried weight
08:23His action remained poetry in motion
08:25And every delivery hinted at his unmatched cricketing brain
08:30Performances like these remind us why Imran Khan's legacy is ashed so deeply into the fabric of the game
08:37They are not just numbers on the scoreboard but timeless lessons in skill, temperament and leadership
