Veteran curator Daljit recalls the magical spell which single-handedly won the match for AustraliaMOHALI: It won't be an understatement to say that Shane Warne left an indelible mark on almost all cricket venues in which he played. The PCA stadium here in Mohali was witness to Warne's first magic spell in a world event. It was the World Cup semifinal against West Indies on 14 March 1996. In a match dominated by fast bowlers on a lively pitch that offered steep bounce, Warne single-handedly won the match for Australia in the last 10 overs as West Indies fell five runs short of Australia's 207.
Wriddhiman Saha, who has alleged that he was intimidated by a journalist for not giving an interview, on Saturday said he has revealed all the details to a BCCI committee probing the matter. And late in the evening, Boria Majumdar in a Twitter video identified himself as the one accused by Saha.
Shane Warne was often called "the best captain Australia never had", and the Indian Premier League side he led to a title triumph in 2008 paid tribute to the late Australian bowler Saturday.
Ravindra Jadeja could have easily gone on to make a double hundred against Sri Lanka on Saturday but the Indian all-rounder sent a message asking for declaration as he wanted his side to exploit the variable bounce and turn on offer. Jadeja scored a career-best 175 in India's 574 for 8 declared and Sri Lanka then were left tottering at 108 for 4 at the end of second day's play. While there was a buzz that Jadeja should have been given a chance to go for a double, the cricketer insisted that it was an ideal time to declare giving opposition a session under difficult circumstances.
Ravindra Jadeja was already an U-19 World Cup champion when he joined the Rajasthan Royals camp in the first edition of IPL back in 2008 but it was Shane Warne's belief in the youngster's ability that made him an instant hit among fans. Royals won the first IPL and Jadeja did play his part, albeit as a finisher, slogging his way into Warne's good books and was named ‘The Rockstar'. As the world mourned the shocking death of 52-year-old Warne in Thailand's Koh Samui, Jadeja, it seemed, is still trying to fathom the reality of the tragedy that has hit millions of cricket fans hard.
