thnks

do you have the videos from the wc 1992? the ending?

Re: Javed Miandad's 6

one of my favorite moment of the hsitory man.. i was in i think class three or four

Re: Javed Miandad’s 6

Cheegum dude… you rock! thanks for that video… I’d never gotten to see it… I would have been around 7ish and could care less about Cricket at the time, but history was made that day!

for a more detailed analysis, read this article in the British Medical Journal by Dr. Kamran Abbasi - entitled “India versus Pakistan and the power of a six: an analysis of cricket results” Link: http://bmj.bmjjournals.com/cgi/reprint/328/7443/800

Re: Javed Miandad's 6

AQ i was in class 2 then :-D

UT i'd never seen it too before. Its just an amazing piece of history. Notice the spring in miandad's foot. Its like he he's running on jetpacks. In the last two deliveries before his six when he's on the non striker's end, he starts running right after the ball leaves the bowler's hands. What message does that give to the striker? Like it or not, you're running buddy cuz i'm already halfway down the pitch! :D

My Dad was reluctant to go for this match, but my mamu insisted & they both had a good time. I still remember Dad returning from Sharjah Xhausted but very joyous & happy. He always taught me to win in any situations.

Re: Javed Miandad's 6

:-) semi final of world cup 1992, moin khan's inning (hate to admit) and this inning from miandad.. in history, i've seen many situations, but none like these.. i remember seeing the last over.. i remember my uncle whose cricket craze i took later on, that we were sitting in our drawing room, watching this match.. after m.elahi my uncle was damn upset.. and had left to drink water.. ke abb kuch nahi ho sakta..

...................... last ball, 4 runs, DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES!????

Re: Javed Miandad's 6

haha Cheegum, yer not gonna believe this... I slept last night after reading your thread and watching the clip... and I dreamed that I was there :D watching this thing live... it was so real that it was freaky! :) and guess what, my mind added its own lil spice (not that it was needed) but something about the Indian team trying to cry to the umpire and dismissing that shot of Miandad... hehe... to no avail though.

Funny! - I never knew I was such a cricket freak! :o

Re: Javed Miandad's 6

Lol someone mentioned this to me earlier and you can clearly see this in the video... Soon after the match is over Tauseef gets hit by a danda from a security guard :D

Re: Javed Miandad's 6

cHEeGUm, Thanks a lot mate... I just watched it again after many years and it made the hair on my arms stand up. Simply amazing!

Re: Javed Miandad's 6

Wah Thanks man.... always wanted to see it.. ;)

Re: Javed Miandad’s 6

This had been in PTV for quite sometimes.. even as far as I remember, Anwer Maqsood in one of his shows did mention it during an interview with Miandaad while showing this clip.

Re: Javed Miandad's 6

Miandad the great..... the commentator was so right.

btw. Pakistanimedia could use smaller tags and banners. As if one was'nt enough, a second banner popped up of equal size...rite in the middle of the screen, on the last delivery. Quite irritating i should say....

Re: Javed Miandad’s 6

True it was irritating. But atleast they took the effort to put the clip online. No one else even bothered.

Re: Javed Miandad's 6

yeaa...true. No i was just getting a mssg across. Dont mind banners and tags, everyone's gotta protect their itellectual property, but they should decrease the size ..and have it somewhere in the side. Most of Pakistani media clips have huge banners and tags......we thought ptv was bad :D

Re: Javed Miandad's 6

Well atleast they have something thats bigger than their egos. I'm referring to the banners.

Re: Javed Miandad's 6

There was even a song out about Miandad right after that happened.

Ab is dunia me sub seh agay hay
Bolo hay wo kaun
Javed MianDad

Re: Javed Miandad's 6

makes me proud. I cant stop watching this clip. Its one of those magic moments in history when everything changes. Before this match Pakistan's cricket team was going down hill. They didnt have the form to face Indian team. This was the push pakistan needed to get over the indian phobia. After than we won sharjah 5 years in a row :-D

Thanks for sharing chiggy... i'll give you a hicky.
