A forgotten gem 💎
Chennai 99 is an epic full of subplots (Sachin’s 136, Afridi’s 141, Saqlain’s magic).
But Venkatesh Prasad’s 6/33 is often overlooked.
His final burst: 17 balls, 0 runs, 5 wkts!
🔥 Pak collapsed from 275/4 to 286.
Do you remember this spell guys?

@mufaddal_vohra A vey good all rounder number
having batting average well ahead of bowling average is the measure how good an all rounder is

@mufaddal_vohra Blink it and you’ll miss it stuff

[CricDiva @CricDiva]

@WisdenCricket One of the greatest spell in test cricket, alongside Venkatesh Prasad, Cartley Ambrose and Sarfaraz Nawaz

[CricDiva @CricDiva]

@mufaddal_vohra One of the most inexperienced Indian squad ever travelled to Sri Lanka for a test series, hope they capitalised on the chance given to them

@cricinfo Looks like one hot vector encoding

@mufaddal_vohra Modern day cricket is very brutal towards fielding standards, South Africa has raised the bar so high in 1990s where they ruled specially ODI cricket majorly because of fielding.
Now the fielding has become an integral part of the game apart from batting or bowling

@mufaddal_vohra Venkatesh Prasad has done even better in that epic 1999 Chennai test against Pakistan . Check it out

Not the first time against Pakistan
Venkatesh Prasad in that iconic Chennai 1999 test was even better

[Johns. @CricCrazyJohns]

ONE OF THE CRAZIEST SPELL EVER IN HISTORY 🤯

Justin Greavas was 6-1-27-0 then:

7th over: 0,0,0,0,0,W
8th over: 0,W,0,0,0,0
9th over: 0,0,W,0,0,0
10th over: 0,0,0,W,0,0
11th over: 0,0,0,0,0,W

Now it's 11-6-27-5 vs Pakistan in the first Test 🥶

[CricDiva @CricDiva]

@ICC Venkatesh Prasad did the same to them way back in 1999

They say, "Take your time in the first game of a long overseas tour."

Meanwhile Virender Sehwag, on the first 3 balls he faced of a 2-month New Zealand tour in 2009:
6, 6, 6. 💀

@cricinfo Windies test cricket is on right path of late, shamar, Seales and Greaves in bowling and Hope, Chase and Jangoo in batting are serious players and of world class, perhaps the departure of T20 leagues mercenaries are doing good for them

[CricDiva @CricDiva]

@Cricketmythos @grok If I were the grok, I would have removed T20 cricket itself in response

[CricDiva @CricDiva]

@CricCrazyJohns Great but real test of the this team will start when Gambhir returns

[CricDiva @CricDiva]

@mufaddal_vohra Good but the real test will begin when Gambhir returns

@cricinfo If losing from winning is an art, then they are Picasso of it
