The interviews are there on youtube, Ravi Shastri for one. Which 14 years, did they stop playing in 2000, they stopped playing for a few years after this match and than when Aaqib javed took the hat trick against them they started crying that the umpire was biased even though he was a SL umpire. In the mid 90’s they came back to play and I remember that as I was at that match and all around the Indians were full of what Tendi was going to do to Pak. As usual India lost the match and I still remember on Pakistani guy got up at the end of the match and addressing the indians said last time we beat you you ran away for 5 years now how long are you going to run for.

Seriously do you think India ran away from Sharjah just because of this one match. If you feel that good for you..
That said, I would not disagree to the statement that the loss was demoralizing. It had a huge impact. I remember myself crying for days. i was very young boy then.

Also do you not agree Sharjah had become a den for match fixers. I remember some matches where both teams were trying to loose.
