#England through to final, #India winless on tour

England made heavy weather of a small target on a WACA pitch of yore, making their way to the final against Australia on Sunday and keeping India winless on their tour of Australia. Once again their bowlers pulled India back after a decent start, keeping them down to 200 after they had been 0 for 83, but their batsmen let the up-and-down pitch play on their minds to be 5 for 66 at one point. The nuggety James Taylor and the authoritative Jos Buttler, though, rescued them with a 125-run partnership that took just 23.2 overs.
India have been no stranger to collapses on this tour, but it will hurt them that today's came after Shikhar Dhawan had finally fought through a tough period and with Ajinkya Rahane looking on course to become only the second non-Australian opener to score a century at the WACA Ground. While the two batted, the pitch looked like the normal WACA one, but once the wickets began to fall, the real monsters showed up. In one over MS Dhoni was hit on the helmet and below the knee roll from similar length. Early in the chase Ian Bell fell lbw to a similar delivery, and the other England batsmen came in with an inherent mistrust of the pitch after that.
India's bowlers made it tough for England by staying accurate, but arguably England had caused the damage in the first half. Put in, India began the day all right but, after fighting it out through the tough period, Dhawan cut at Chris Woakes with no feet, and toe-ended him through to Buttler. At 1 for 83 in the 21st over, it was a decent platform for Virat Kohli to bat at No. 3 - India have been saving him should a wicket fall early - but India's middle order fell to a familiar and unusual foe.
Almost all through the Test series in the English summer, India didn't quite figure out how to play Moeen Ali. They were caught between disdain and extreme caution, and on evidence of Friday, Moeen has the wood on them. Neither of his two next wickets - in the space of eight balls - had anything to do with the pitch. A moment after Buttler had asked the long-off to move a touch wider, Kohli looked to either clear him or beat him to his right, but couldn't do either. This time India had Raina coming in at No. 4, and he left even before his eyes would have adjusted to the bright light in Perth. He repeated his Brisbane dismissal with a premeditated charge at Moeen, and this time he managed a thick edge as opposed to the stumping at the Gabba.
It can't be easy for Ambati Rayudu, entering in the middle of another crisis. He is asked to bat at No. 3 when India start poorly, and here he would have been relegated had India lost their third wicket after the 35th over. Rayudu couldn't handle the heat that was on, handing Stuart Broad his first wicket of the series after the bowler made a good comeback from his ordinary first spell.
Rahane meanwhile had got into a flow after the edgy start. The innings depended on him and Dhoni with England giving nothing away. You could sense a wicket around the corner, and to expedite it came the batting Powerplay. On cue Rahane opened the face when Steven Finn got the ball to hold its line. Once again Dhoni was caught at the death with no recognised batsman around him. Once the pitch got Dhoni out, the rest imploded, except for some merry hitting from Mohammed Shami and Mohit Sharma, who was playing despite not being in the World Cup squad.
The 35 the two added gave them something to bowl at, and they began well. From the time Bell fell to the shooter, there was unease among England batsmen. Pressure built, and Moeen pulled out a Kohli-like dismissal off the bowling of Axar Patel. Joe Root drove hard to give Stuart Binny a tough return catch. Eoin Morgan and Ravi Bopara came out looking suspiciously at the pitch, and got out softly to Binny.
At 5 for 66, India looked like they could just come out with something to show for the tour, but Taylor and Buttler had other ideas. Until now it had seemed that Taylor had got stuck at one end, but in the company of Buttler he batted industriously. Around this time Ravindra Jadeja was introduced too, in the 21st over. Coming back from a shoulder injury, Jadeja didn't have quite the zing his bowling earlier had. Easy singles flowed, and with the asking rate in control the two batsmen had no problem accepting those singles.
Buttler was three when he pushed Taylor for a non-existent single. Rahane swooped in fast from cover, and threw while diving but missed the stumps. Buttler was so far that had Rahane run in with the ball it would have still been close. On such moments are games turned.
Buttler kept hitting the odd boundary off remotely loose balls without taking any risk, which gave Taylor the time to accumulate peacefully. For a situation as precarious as this, the two knocked off the remaining runs with relative ease. They hardly played an ill-advised shot, and when they did - like Taylor did against Axar in the 39th over, jumping put of the crease and then sweeping because he had been beaten in the flight - they had the rub of the green going their way. This one went for four off the bottom edge. The boundary brought the target to under 50.
England still didn't stroll through with Taylor and Buttler falling just short of the target, but that was more reminder that they are England. They eventually won with 3.1 overs to spare.

Top 10 tied matches of all time

10) Pakistan vs Ireland, Pakistan tour of Ireland 2013, 1st ODI

Pakistan toured Ireland in the early months of 2013 for much-needed practice before the ICC Champions Trophy which was to be held in England. But much to the surprise of many, Ireland proved to be a stiff opposition for the Pakistan. Pakistan batted first and registered 266/5 in a 47 over rain reduced match, thanks to an impressive century from Hafeez. But Ireland were in no mood to let go of the match as they marched to 227/4 with 49 needed of last 6 overs. But the script wasn’t meant to have a normal ending. With 15 needed of last over and Ajmal to bowl, all was lost for Ireland. But Kevin O’Brien wasn’t going to give up easily even after scoring just 2 runs in first 3 balls. The 4th ball was hit for a six and the next one for a two. With 5 required of the final ball, he flicked the ball to backward square boundary and tied the match.

9) South Africa vs West Indies, Champions Trophy 2013, Group Stage
 (SA 230/6, 31 overs ; WI 190/6, 26.1 overs D/L) :

The next match on the list is the Champions Trophy match between South Africa and West Indies in the following summer. West Indies required to win the match in order to qualify for the semis and South Africa have to avoid loss to qualify. Rain played a crucial part in the match as it allowed only 31 overs in the South African innings in which they managed 230/6. In reply, West Indies the T20 champions played sensibly and were on course of victory even if it rained mid way through the innings. By the end of the 26th over their score was 190/5 and the par score was 186 and with rain looming all seemed set for West Indies to enter the semis. But Pollard, who until then played comfortably, had a sudden brain freeze and slogged a delivery to gift his wicket. The equation changed immediately and the par score was raised to 190 and with no further play possible, West Indies were eliminated. This match was an irony considering the previous exits of South Africa in the World Cups. 1992: South Africa lost to rain. 1996: They lost to West Indies. 1999: They lost to a tie. 2003: They lost to a tie on D/L. They beat all the previous results in one match.
8) Ireland vs Zimbabwe, World Cup 2007, Group Stage
(Ire 221/9, 50 overs ; Zim 221 all out, 50 overs):

The next match on our list is considered one of the greatest matches in World Cup history and is played between the minnows Zimbabwe and Ireland. The result of the match had further effect as it gave the confidence to Ireland to beat Pakistan and reach the knock out stage. Ireland batted first and on the back of an excellent century from Jeremy Bray  (which is his only international century) the scored 221/9. Zimbabwe were cruising at 92/1 but within 45 mins, they were teetering at 133/5. But due to the sloppy fielding from the Irish, they steadied the ship and moved to 203/5 with just 19 needed in 39 balls. But then all Hell broke loose. Taylor, who until then was the calming presence, was out unfortunately as the shot deflected from the bowlers had and hit the non-striker end wickets and was run out. The Irish bowlers tightened the screws and brought down the target to 9 runs from 6 balls with just one wicket remaining. Matsikenyeri( 73* of 76) did not give up and brought the target to 1 run from the last ball. He missed the ball but the keeper did not miss the stumps and all of Ireland erupted with joy and delight.
7) Australia vs England, Natwest Series 2005, Final 
(Aus 196 all out ; Eng 196/9, 50 overs) :

 Ashes 2005 is probably the greatest test series of all time and the main reason it is held at such high stature is due to fact that it was fought between to equal teams. But even before the series began, there were signs that it would be a great series and one such sign was the Natwest series final which ended in a tie. Australia, the then No 1 ODI team struggled on their way to 196 as they batted first on a green Lord’s surface. But once they started bowling, they showed the English why they are the No 1 team in the world and dragged them to 33/5 in less than 10 overs. But Collingwood and G Jones were in no mood to give up this time around and added 116 runs for the 6th wicket. But Collingwood was run out and soon both the Jones joined him in the pavilion. With 28 required from the last 3 overs and just 2 wickets remaining, the odds were surely in the favour of the Aussies. But Giles and Gough showed tenacity and were aided by the ill discipline of the Australian bowlers and brought down the target to 10 from the last over. The extras continued even in the last over as McGrath overstepped for the first ball. But Gough was run out of the 5th ball and 3 runs were required for the last ball. Giles tried to tuck the bowl down the leg side but it hit his pad and somehow managed to milk 2 leg byes from the final bowl as England celebrated the result.
6) India vs New Zealand, India tour of New Zealand 2014, 4th ODI
(NZ 314 all out ; Ind 314/9, 50 overs) :

No 6 on the list is the most recent of the 32 tied matches in ODI history. India after struggling in the overseas for the past 3 years has finally found some confidence after their tour of South Africa and wanted to continue their rich form even in New Zealand. But the Kiwis, made life difficult for the visitors as they heaped 2 defeats in their first 2 ODIs. With a daunting total of 314, it seemed as if the series was over and India were ready to give up. With a score of 184/6 and all the recognised batsmen out, New Zealand hand one hand on the trophy already. But Indian spinners Ashwin and Jadeja, who till then struggled with bat in the series provided the ray of hope for the Indian team. Both of them took advantage of the smaller boundaries and scored freely around the park. But once Ashwin was out, the tail did not show the resolve and were down to 286/9 with 29 needed of 12 balls and Jadeja at the crease. But ‘Sir’ Jadeja took NZ bowlers to cleaners and scored 17 in the last over with 6 of the 5th ball and 4s of the 1st and the 4th ball. With 2 needed of the last ball to complete a famous victory, Jadeja could only squeeze a single and the match was tied and the series was kept alive only for India to stumble again 2 days later and lose the series.
5) England vs New Zealand,England tour of New Zealand 2008, 4th ODI
(Eng 340/6, 50 overs ; NZ 340/7, 50 overs):

McLean Park (Napier), England and New Zealand have a unique relationship. When the teams met in 1997 on the same ground, it produced a tie and again when they met in 2008 it produced another tie. England batted first and scored an incredible 340 on a flat pitch with short boundaries. But when it was their turn to bowl, they were battered the same way and even more by the NZ batsmen. Jamie How set up and excellent chase for the hosts and NZ were cruising to victory and when Styris got out in the 44th over, the scoreboard read 301/3 with just 40 needed of 39 balls. But with the fall of wicket, England rose from the dead and chipped away at the NZ wickets. But How kept the scoreboard ticking and with the help of their captain, Vettori he brought down the target to 7 in the last over. But then began the real problem for Collingwood as he used up all his main bowlers and was left with just the part-timers. Luke Wright, who did not bowl in the match was given the ball. This was just his 3rd over in his 4 match ODI career. But he delivered in style as he repeatedly hit the block hole and gave just singles and ran out How in the pen ultimate ball. With 2 needed of the last ball, he fired another yorker and somehow Vettori manged to pull of a single with Mills diving full length to complete the single.

4) England vs South Africa, England tour of South Africa 2005, 2nd ODI
(Eng 270/5, 50 overs ; SA 270/8, 50 overs) :

8 needed of the final over and the bowlers who is asked to bowl till then was carted around. The first ball is a waist-high full toss no ball and dispatched to the boundary. The confidence of the bowlers is shattered to bits and just 3 runs needed in the last 5 balls with 2 batsmen at the crease. Any team in the world would comfortably win from this position but the perennial chokers South Africa could barely mange a tie.England amassed 270 on the back of a Pietersen’s maiden century. South Africa were in pursuit of the target and with some big hitting from Kemp, brought down the run rate and all they had to do was to seal the victory. With 8 needed of the last over, the ball was given to Kabir Ali, who till then had a match to forget. It seemed that England had lost hope of the victory and were in no mood for a fight and it was further confirmed after the first ball was a no ball 4. The next ball was a full toss which Boucher hit straight to the deep mid wicket fielder. The next 2 balls were fast and full and Pollock could only scamper for a single of the 3rd ball. The new batsmen Prince failed to hold his nerve and was run out the next ball. Pollock managed a single the next ball and tied the scores. With just 1 needed of the last ball, Hall was unable to connect with the ball and was stumped by the keeper who was standing up and tied the match.
3) India vs England, World Cup 2011, Group Stage
(Ind 338 all out, 49.5 overs ; Eng 338/8, 50 overs) :

The Match Summary Tells The Story Of The Result At The MA Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bangalore (Image Source : © AFP )

No 3 on the list is another high scoring thriller involving India and England. With the World Cup being hosted by India, high expectations were a norm and especially after the first match trashing of Bangladesh, the Indian fans expected another delight and were treated to one. Sachin’s masterful century, aided by middle order’s quick runs ensured that India would not lose the match, at least not easily. But all these thoughts were put to test by the English Captain Andrew Strauss as he scored a chanceless 158 against a sub par Indian bowling. He scored runs with minimum fuss and soon the stadium went silent and all the joy was halted. It seemed as if the Indian bowling has yet again failed to defend a tall target. But when all seemed lost, the bowling spearhead Zaheer stood up and removed the well set Bell and Strauss in consecutive deliveries. In his next over, he dismissed Collingwood and turned the match on its head. Soon the tail was exposed to a rejuvenated bowling and had to score 42 in just 4 overs. But they chipped away at the remaining runs and 14 were needed of the last over. Ahmed Shahzad came out as the unlikely hero as he carted a six over the sight screen and with 2 needed of the last ball, Swann scampered for a single and tied the match.
2) South Africa vs Sri Lanka, World Cup 2003, Group Stage
(SL 268/9, 50 overs ; SA 229/6, 45 overs D/L) :

Sydney 1992, Edgbaston 1999,  Durban 2003 ; South Africa have a knack of exiting the World Cups in the most bizarre ways possible. World Cup 2003 was supposed to be South Africa’s best cricketing moment and winning the World Cup on the home soil was something the players would have dreamt many times. Some lacklustre performances in the League Stages meant that they had to win their last league match against Sri Lanka if they have to qualify for the Super Six stage. Sri Lanka struggled initially but a superlative century from Atapattu meant that the hosts were handed a daunting task of chasing 269 with the weather forecast threatening a downpour. But Gibbs along with Smith and Boucher ensured that the run rate was never out of hand. After he was dismissed, Boucher continued his good work as South Africa inched closer to the target. With the match nearing its end, the rain threat increased and soon D/L calculations were made and the par scores were informed after every over. Boucher was informed that 229 at the end of 45 overs was the par score and he duly made sure that the target was achieved with one ball to spare and defended the last ball towards mid wicket. As predicted the rain made its entry and Boucher along with Klusener returned to the pavilion smiling. But later they came to know that 230 was the par score and they tied the game. With no further play possible, the match ended as a tie and South Africa were eliminated from the World Cup.
1) Australia vs South Africa, World Cup 1999, Semi Finals
(Aus 213 all out, 49.2 overs ; SA 213 all out, 49.4 overs) :

Allan Donald Is Run Out And The Game Is Tied Between Australia And South Africa ( Image Source : © Getty Images)

The NO 1 on our list is not only the best tied match of all time, but is also one of the greatest ODI match of all time and the greatest match in the World Cup. The semi final match between South Africa and Australia was studded with magnificent performances. First the batsmen of the tournament, Mark Waugh was out in the first over then  the momentum shifted six times in Australia’s innings alone – 3/1 to 54/1 to 68/4 to 158/4 to 158/6 to 207/6 to a modest and barely defendable 213 all out. The reply fittingly was the same as South Africa went from – 48/0 to 61/4 to 145/4 to 198/9. Lance Klusener, the man of the tournament was left alone with no 11 Donald at the crease. With 30 runs needed of the last 4 overs and 1 wicket left, Klusener defied the Aussie bowlers and clubbed boundaries. He swung his bat so powerfully at a ball in the 49th over that the wide mid-on fielder, Paul Reiffel dropped and parried it for a 6. Then came the last over, which in fact might be the most dramatic over in all of cricket’s history. With 9 runs needed and Klusener at the crease, the ball was handed to Fleming and he came with a worked out idea to bowl wide yorkers to negate Kluseners leg side strength. But he had no trouble blasting the first 2 balls for cover boundary and wide mid off. The next ball slowly squirted to Lehmann and Donald who backed up too much, was almost run out had the ball hit the stumps. But by then the game was supposedly lost for Australia and their only hope left was Klusener to have a Brain-freeze and he had one the next ball itself. The next ball was a perfect yorker and Klusener mis-hit to the mid off and immediately took off. But poor Donald after the previous delivery mishap went back to his crease as the ball crossed the stumps and then took off and was too late to reach the striker’s end where Gilchrist received the ball and already had knocked out the stumps. Though the match ended in a tie, Australia progressed on account of a superior run rate in the Super Six stage.
