A tale of mighty heights. A tale hard to fathom!!!

It was on a Sunny day in Birmingham, England where World Cup semifinal took place between Australia and South Africa in the year 1999

It was the last over where Africans needed just 9 runs to win. 

The first two balls went racing towards boundary and just when everyone thought Africans had entered in finals, they committed to a horrible run which turned into a run-out. The matched ended in draw and Africans were out of WC. 

I’m sure for many fanatic cricket followers it still remains a tale which is hard to fathom!!!

Well, after seeing the scenes unfold yesterday at Chinnaswamy Stadium between India and Bangladesh one could still not believe how in the World Bangladesh lost the match when they just needed 2 runs in 3 balls. 

And if not for those two wrong shots the image of certain last run out reminded me of 1999 WC Semifinal. 

Not for nothing in Cricket do they say “It’s not over till it’s completely over!!” 

But a new question lingering on my mind - 
Is Bangladesh subcontinents South Africa? 
Are they new Chockers of World Cup setting? 
Can India script what Aussies scripted in 1999?

Bad luck Bangladesh. 

Good luck India for remaining encounters!!!
