World Cup memory
Epic win in Garden City

All roads led to the Chinnswamy Stadium on March 9, 1996 in Bangalore where India and Pakistan clashed for the World Cup quarter-final. A side strain to Wasim Akram meant the visitors had to be led by Aamer Sohail and Mohd Azharuddin won a good toss. Navjot Singh Sidhu blazed away to 93 before he was castled by leggie Mushtaq Ahmed. Ajay Jadeja came up with an impact innings of 45 (25 balls, 4x4, 2x6). The Pakistanis had to reach their 288-run target in 49 overs as match referee Raman Subba Row docked them an over due to slow over-rate.
