The Most Rewatchable Cricket Matches That Make Fans Go 'I Was There When This Happened'
Which cricket matches do fans love to revisit? We have the list! The sweet, sweet win at The Oval by India against England to level the thrilling five-match Test series is yet to sink in. In a country where cricket is a massive escape for the aam janta, it shouldn't come as a surprise that the fanbase of the beloved sport has a few of their favourite encounters they love to visit every once in a while. So when the 'Aussies Army" asked the cricket fans to list their most 'rewatchable" matches of all time, the folks on X delivered. We have selected only a few fan responses from the past two decades and revisited those memorable matches from Men's cricket. Please note that this list is not comprehensive and may not include your personal favourites. Follow On To Miracle Win, 2001 Before Dada got to remove his jersey at the Lord's balcony during the epic Natwest finals celebrations against England, India did the unthinkable at the Eden Gardens in a Test match against Australia. Touted as one of the greatest comebacks of all time in the red-ball format, India are bundled out for 171 in response to Australia's 445. If you require a refresher, this Aussie side boasts of Michael Slater, Matthew Hayden, Justin Langer, Mark Waugh, Steve Waugh, Ricky Ponting, Shane Warne, and Glenn McGrath. Adam Gilchrist comes at No. 7 after the first six return to the hut. Yes, we are up against that. To rub salt into the wounds, captain Steve Waugh enforces follow-on with a lead of 276 runs. This is when India shows courage and script history. Day 3 and Day 4 belong to the Indian batters who torment the Australian bowling attack. VVS Laxman eventually departs for a heroic 281. The Wall, Rahul Dravid, stacks up a fighting 180. Ganguly declares at 657/7 and brings back the Aussies batters onto the field. With the home crowd now roaring and cheering for every ball, India make Australia's star batting line-up look ordinary. The visitors are eventually bowled out for 212. Harbhajan Singh stars with the ball for India, scalping 13 wickets across two innings. The home side stun the mighty Australia and win the match by 171 runs. Greatest ODI Chase? 2006 We all remember Glenn Maxwell playing the role of solo hero to help Australia shock Afghanistan in the 2023 CWC. But do you remember that incredible night when an entire team brought their A game when it mattered the most? Batting first, Australia have smashed an outrageous 434. Many begin to fumble with their remote controls and flip through channels to watch something else. There is no way a team can chase down that score, right? RIGHT? South Africa, the locals, are playing in front of the Johannesburg crowd. The opening batter, Graeme Smith, lays the perfect foundation. Herschelle Gibbs comes along and builds an entire mansion on it. Gibbs smashes a jaw-dropping 175. Mark Boucher is the last recognisable batter on the crease, and he miraculously brings the Proteas home on the final delivery of the spectacular match. South Africa win the series 3-2 with this record-breaking triumph and rewrite the ODI run chases forever. Dhoni Finishes Off In Style, 2011 'Dhoni finishes off in style, it's a magnificent strike into the crowd, India lifts the world cup after 28 years. The party has started in the dressing room. And it's an Indian captain, who has been absolutely magnificent on the night of the finals." Mahendra Singh Dhoni steps up on the biggest night of his life. Gautam Gambhir soaks in the pressure after the early loss of Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar at the hands of lethal Sri Lanka pacer Lasith Malinga. India are the favourites, playing in front of a packed Wankhede Stadium. Then, that six by Dhoni. Dhoni launches Nuwan Kulasekara for a six over the long-on area to end India's 28-year wait. The crowd goes berserk. The fans, armed with the tricolour, hit the streets for the celebrations. Boundary Count, 2019 England, the inventors of cricket, win their maiden ODI World Cup against dejected New Zealand, but the edge-of-the-seat thriller isn't devoid of drama. The match has a cruel ending for one of the sides. England emerge as the winners in a match where a diving Ben Stokes's bat deflects a throw as he tries to complete a second run. The deflected ball races to the boundary. Sri Lankan umpire Kumar Dharmasena awards six runs. Dharmasena later accepts an error in judgment. England should have gotten five runs instead of six, as the English batters did not cross for the second run at the moment the ball was thrown at the stumps. A controversial match already, the pendulum swings back and forth between England and New Zealand, resulting in a Super Over tie. England are awarded the title owing to a contentious boundary count law. Gabba Test Given to chase 328, opening batter Shubman Gill slams a stylish 91 to keep India in the hunt. Cheteshwar Pujara takes blows all day long like a tank. He faces 211 deliveries for his 56. Rishabh Pant plays like Rishabh Pant. The man is on a mission, and he scores an unbeaten 89 to take India home to a stunning 2-1 series win with only 18 deliveries to spare in the Test match. This win, especially at this venue, is even more special as India finally break the Gabba's fortress – Australia's 32-year unbeaten streak at the ground. Virat Kohli Magic, 2022 It's not over until it's over. India's star batter Virat Kohli showcases why he's the best in the business. The stakes are towering, the electric energy at the MCG is palpable. And why not? India are up against Pakistan in the T20 WC 2022, where the latter are heading towards a win. But not on Kohli's watch. The man sticks around on one end as wickets keep tumbling. The run rate keeps rising by the minute. But Kohli is still there, and the desis in the stadium have pinned their hopes on their main man. 48 is required in 18 deliveries. Kohli smacks one of the whackiest sixes against Haris Rauf straight down the ground, and Pakistan begin losing the plot. In the end, Kohli's unbeaten 82 becomes one of the best T20 innings of all time played under pressure. Long Off, Long Off, LONG OFF, 2024 South Africa, often criticised and mocked for faltering at big occasions, famously fumble the T20 World Cup trophy on 29 June 2024, where they lose to India by 7 runs. Needing 30 off 30 with six wickets in hand after 15 overs, the Proteas are well on their way to India's target of 177. What could go wrong? That equation, however, changes drastically and South Africa find themself in a situation where they require 16 off the last over bowled by Hardik Pandya. Suryakumar Yadav's sensational catch of David Miller at the long off position, inches from the boundary cushion, seals the fate of the Proteas. India lift the T20 WC trophy the second time after Dhoni's young side tasted success in the maiden T20 WC back in 2007. Honourable Mentions: Ben Stokes 'It's too much for everyone." Ben Stokes singlehandedly takes England to a ridiculous win against Australia at Headingley. It's called the miracle of Leeds. After being reduced to 286/9, Stokes hits the winning runs, bringing the crowd to its feet. His unbeaten 135 is one for the ages. Many put the 2019 encounter between England and Australia as one of the greatest Tests of all time. Glenn Maxwell Just like Stokes, Glenn Maxwell plays the innings of his life in the 2023 Cricket World Cup. This time around, though, the stakes are even bigger. Australia's opponents and big-hearted Afghanistan have dragged the Aussies to the pits. Batting first, Afghanistan post an impressive target of 292. Australia, in their response, have a horror outing with the bat. With 7 down for 91, it's all over for the Men in Yellow. Or is it? top videos View all Maxwell not only delays Afghanistan's inevitable win but scores an unbeaten 201* consisting of 20 boundaries and 10 sixes. The man hobbles, plays on one leg, suffers from debilitating body cramps, but ensures his side crosses the victory line with 19 deliveries to spare. Australia proceed to the final and go on to lift yet another World Cup trophy. The home crowd, India, settle for the runners-up title.
