ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

[JohnBitCo]

Is that same game, where Sachin made 100 something and beat the shit out of all Australian bowlers? If yes then yeah I remember this match 😔😔

This is the match played  on 24 April 1998 and my memory is not so strong to remember these old matches. (world cups are an exception)
I have googled it and found https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/8534/scorecard/65774/australia-vs-india-final-coca-cola-cup-1997-98

Tendulkar made 134 and was the man of the match in this final.  This innings would be worth watching.

Now this very long lock down with these very old matches going to be more bore as nothing new every news channel crying about Corona or about side effects of this lock down but we cannot do any thing just stay in stay safe with this all bore matches.

This match may not be interesting for you but being a cricket lover, you might enjoy the match or look out for some special innings and how was cricket being played 20 years back when the technology was not so advanced as it is now. Such matches also rewind our lives to 20 years back and a lot of memories comes to my mind.

Technology started changing from the late 1980s onward. So if you want to get a good idea about how the matches was played before the technological revolution, then you need to watch the tournaments that were played before mid-1980s. But some of those matches are not available online. One example is the India vs Zimbabwe match in 1983, in which Kapil Dev made 175 not out. That match was not broadcast live, so no video is available.

Since we can't watch those matches, so we can't imagine how they were played. But even 20 years ago the technology were not so good as it is now. We didn't have closeup reviews, hawkeye and a lot of other things at that time.

True. All that remains of that match are a few photographs. BBC was having the broadcasting rights for the 1983 Cricket World Cup (which was being played in England). Back then, India was being considered as one of the minnows, with West Indies being the overwhelming favorites to win the world cup. On that day, West Indies was playing against Australia and therefore the BBC sent the crew and equipment to cover that match. For them, the India vs Zimbabwe match was not a very important one.

For this particular game ; English media had a very colonial mindset about any Subcontinent team so they didn't bother to cover this game and same goes with the broadcasters.

Those were bad days for colored people. British Media had a very negative outlook towards ex colonies . Australia at that time was being governed by the monarch therefore more emphasis was on their game.

I don't want to generalize anyone... but BBC in particular have a very bad attitude towards Indians. I've been watching BBC news regularly for more than 15 years now, and I have noticed this several times. On the other hand, international channels such as CNN, RT and DW are more balanced in their coverage. That said... it is a great loss for the Indians that the match was not covered. We will never get to see that amazing innings from Kapil Dev.

[JohnBitCo]

Next match to be on air on Retrolive on 24th April. I am sure unlike previous matches no one knows what happened in this match, you need to google it to find all about this match or watch it on 24th   

This match is over now on Retrolive but if anyone missed the match or wanted to see it again, then you catch it at the below link.

BBC and British media never been happy with any good things happening in sub-continent mostly they reports which bring negative point of this area just because of this they never been popular here like CNN and now DW is also doing some good work with the help of local broascasters.

Are you people talking about old days when British media was not fair ?
Today the things have changed dramatically and all the broadcasters give priority to cover the cricket in India more than anywhere else.

They have to do it as they will not generate revenue if they do not. British media is still the same and some of the US media are having the same attitude they still think they are superior to any one else in the world.

High Ad revenue got them changed dramatically.

THE COCA COLA CUP FINAL 1998 HIGHLIGHTS

I remember this match and also had seen this as one of the most famous matches in which India has played some magnificent cricket and match as well. It was all dominated by Australia and India during that time was not that strong team India came back strongly and Sachin lead it from front and played shorts all over the ground.

After almost two months, watched a live cricket match today. Fancode mobile app did broadcast some matches from the Taipei T10 League. Don't ask me much about the quality, because you know the answer.  But still I was really happy to watch some live action. And as expected, this so called "Taipei League" don't have a single Taiwanese player. All of them are expats.

@Vishnu.Reang my heart skipped a beat when I read that there was a live cricket match (during lockdown) and I had missed seeing it, but after reading what I had missed I had to smile and be happy that I missed it. Further I understand your excitement as seeing a live cricket match is rare these days, but I would yet pass the opportunity to see this league as I only like to watch quality cricket even during the lockdown.

I have no idea about this league as nothing is mentioned on cricinfo about it. However i searched it to find the complete details of it, maybe it will be helpfu for those who want some live action.

This is something like finding a jewel in the coal. Anything at this point of time when there are no matches for coming time as well it seems and in between if we can find any of the match of any local team playing anywhere would also be of the highest regard as per me. Also can you share the link and hope the match was little interesting if not that exciting.

I doubt it is possible to bet on this match. The only reason we came to know about this tournament is because no one else is playing at the moment. I doubt they have any affiliation with ICC also otherwise it would have come up on cricinfo.

You will not find any YouTube videos, because the content is copyrighted. 

You need to install the Fancode app on your mobile phone to watch these matches. I installed it a few months ago, in order to watch the FIBA World Cup (Basketball). Every now and then, they show some minor cricket matches for free (such as Zimbabwe vs Singapore or Nepal vs Afghanistan). As of now, the Belarusian Premier League football is also being shown live there.
