The Top 10 Greatest Cricket World Cup Moments Of All Time: Mesmerizing Scenarios

Over the years, the Cricket World Cup has provided us with a multitude of moments that will never be forgotten. The top 10 candidates were chosen, and an order of preference was established based on their selections.

According to icc latest news, the list includes some well-known individuals, but it also shows a great lot about the narrow line that separates success and failure. They weren’t successful, but they did get a few honorable mentions that they believe are deserving of recognition.

• Wasim Akram annihilates England in the 1992 World Cup Final.

On their route to become world champions in 1992, Pakistan had to triumph over a number of rivals and challenges. They were able to move to the quarterfinals because to the weather delay that occurred during England’s play and Australia’s win over the West Indies. Also, they won their match against the West Indies. It is correct to say that both of those occurrences took place.

A young man by the name of Inzamam-ul-Haq was the driving force behind his team’s remarkable triumph in the run-chase competition that took place later in the semifinals. The home team was competing in Eden Park in Auckland, New Zealand, and they were taken aback by their victory.

• In 2007, D. Leverock’s Catch B became a huge hit in India.

It would be disrespectful to leave out D. Leverock of Bermuda’s capture from 2007, even though it is quite probable that he did not believe it would be included on the list. When M. Jones began his second over, the hitter for India, Robin Uthappa, reacted by drawing his bat   from his body in response to the first delivery of the over.

Due to his height, Leverock was most likely covering both the first and second slide at the same time. He rushed to his right and grabbed the ball with one hand as it careened over the edge of the platform and onto the earth.

The video that was taken in 2011 of Sachin Tendulkar being carried through the streets of Mumbai has recently gained widespread attention.

• A 2011 video of Sachin Tendulkar being carried through the streets of Mumbai has gone viral.

Sachin Tendulkar was able to cap off an impressive World Cup career on a triumphant note by claiming victory in front of his home crowd in India.

India won the title of “Little Master” for the sixth and last time when they defeated Sri Lanka in the final match by a score of 274-6. This victory marked the end of the “Little Master’s” reign as champion. Tendulkar, who only made 18 runs, became the center of attention during the celebrations.

• Throughout 2007, Herschelle Gibbs managed to knock in sixes on six separate occasions.

If not for Herschelle Gibbs’ stunning batting effort in 2007, South Africa’s 221-run triumph against the Netherlands would not have been nearly as spectacular.

•  Mike Gatting Regrets Playing the Reverse Sweep in 1987

After three successive eliminations from the World Cup finals, England has learned to gracefully accept failure. In 1987, they were inches away from winning the final against Australia in front of a sold-out crowd at Eden Gardens.

England, with captain Mike Gatting and Bill Athey at the crease, seemed to be in position to reclaim the Ashes after reducing their opponent’s total to 255. Australia’s captain, Allan Border, came out to bowl left-arm off-spin when the score was 135-2. This was because of the partnership between the two batters at the third-wicket stage.

• Rain Caused Problems in South Africa in 2003 

No World Cup has ever been held in South Africa under ideal circumstances. The rules about bad weather prevented them from making it to the 1992 final.

• K. O’Brien’s contribution to Ireland’s stunning 2011 victory against England –

In in 2011 when Kevin O’Brien was playing for Ireland versus England in Bangalore, this idea sounded like a brilliant one. After he was done making crucial plays, his side was moments away from winning a game that would go down as a classic.

The Group B match began with the all-team rounder’s behind England by 327-8 and a score of 106-4. Because of this, a spectacular demonstration of powerful striking occurred. Yet, despite only facing 63 pitches, O’Brien still managed to drive in 113 runs.

• S. Waugh and Aus Somehow Survive in 1999 –

The squad led by Herschelle Gibbs had a shot at beating the one that ended up winning the World Cup, and Gibbs personally came close to taking home the trophy. If Australia wants to advance to the next stage of the Super Six event, they must win over South Africa at Headingley.

After losing seven wickets, the Proteas still managed to score 271 runs in their first innings. Gibbs was credited for 101 of the runs scored. It was always assumed that they would be among the bottom four competitors.

• In 2003, Henry Olonga and Andy Flower decide to take a stand.

At the 2003 World Cup, there were just too many distractions to keep people interested in the main event.

Several people have voiced their disapproval of having the games in Zimbabwe. Case in point: the English squad skipped out on a match versus the co-hosts because they didn’t feel like playing. Two Zimbabwean players also voiced their displeasure with the current political climate.

To “mourn the passing of democracy,” fast bowler Henry Olonga and batsman Andy Flower donned black armbands during their team’s group match against Namibia. They made a courageous choice despite the fact that it may have cost them their positions as ambassadors.

• Australia wins against all odds in 1999 against South Africa

Even if you disagree with the chronological sequence of these occurrences, there is no question as to who comes in first.

In 1999, Australia and South Africa played at Edgbaston for a spot in the World Cup final. This match certainly lived up to expectations. As a result, the score ended up being tied. The final score of 213 on the scoreboard tells some of the tale, but it is incomplete.

Shane Warne’s brilliance in the second inning stifled South Africa’s ability to score runs, but Lance Klusener’s century in the late stages of the match salvaged the Proteas.
