Defining Moments at #ICCWorldCup
Miandad vs More and the kangaroo jumps!
This amazing incident from the 1992 World Cup marquee game between India and Pakistan is permanently etched in hearts of millions of cricket fans.
Miandad known for his antiques to provoke opposition players said something that riled up More.
He started mouthing from behind the stumps. This continued for a while until Miandad stopped the bowler (Sachin Tendulkar) and decided to have a word with More about it.
Both exchanged words before complaining to the umpire about each other.
The very next ball ... Miandad plaeyed towards mid on, ran a bit but came back since Sachin had fielded and thrown the ball back to More. He was well inside but More still flicked the bails and appeared to appeal. This got Miandad annoyed and he did the now legendary "Kangaroo" jumps in kangaroo land (venue: Sydney Cricket Ground)
Absolutely hilarious to see but raised tension between the two teams on the night.
India went on to win the game comfortably. Miandad bowled by Javagal Srinath.
