What would be your dream cricket match scenario and result ?

Mine would be, if I was watching live:

WC Final at Kolkata (Eden Gardens), Ind vs Pak/Aus, Last ball 5 to win.. Sachin hooks Akhtar/Lee for a six :D

Wouldn't that be awesome for Indian fans...

What abt the rest of you ??

Final Ashes Test at Lords.

Series locked at 2-2.

Australia require 293 to win, but are 9/198.

With Warne and McGrath, they put on a stand of 100, with Warney making 102* and McGrath 8*.

Last ball, one to win Wanre hooks Harmison for six and out of the stadium to bring up the century.

More heartbreak for England.

erm....didnt England win 2 tests in an Ashes series not that long ago (and that was when England were bad)...and I seem to remember the last time Australia were in England,at one stage in a match Australia were about 90 odd for 7.

I am an Aussie...but all this England bashing does my head in

World Cup 2007 - Final. Kolkata.

Australia 3/344 (49.5 overs/50 overs)

IK Pathan 0/94 (9.5 overs)

GB Hogg 94* striker
ME Waugh 154* non-striker

49.5: Pathan to Hogg - half volley dispatched over the head of the bowler for 6 - a hundred to each player taking part in the delivery! Boy, don't Nehra and Balaji rue their dropped catches now!

AA leads India off the field after his sterling performance of 10-2-3-34. Apart from his cheers, the fans sit, stunned. The terrace has finally been silenced.

Final match of the South Africa v Australia series... South Africa lead 2-0 going into the third match,
Played at Centurion Park (Northern suburbs chicks get in free :) ) which ends out like this...

South Africa 972-6dec. (M Van Jaarsveld 401* , MV Boucher 67, Shane Warne's mum 6-356, penalty runs 415)
Australia 543 all out (Langer 248, Nel 3-31, Boje 5-46, penalty runs 15 after Nel assaults Darren Lehmann with tongue)
Australia (f/o) 5 all out (Penalty runs 5 after Smith calls Lehmann a "lightweight", Pretorius 10-0)

Hmm, there are a few, but anything like this would do:
Australia 87ao (Lehmann 54, Nel 14-1-13-8)
South Africa 1000 for 2 dec. (Smith 542*, some other people some other big scores)
Australia 113ao (Lehmann 62, Adams 8-42)

This might top it, though:
Third Test in 2005, Trent Bridge, Australia 2-0 up after comfortable victories at Lord's and Edgbaston.
England 132ao (Dickinson 63*, Warne 8-49)
Australia 558ao (who cares about figures?)
England 607-6 (Dickinson 370, who cares about the rest?)
Australia 124ao (Caddick 8-20)
Going into the third session of the third day Australia cannot conceivably lose the series. However, in 37 overs England's newest prodigy Richard Dickinson(who could not score a run in third-team cricket for most of the previous season, or the three before that, but turned it around in late July) turns the game on it's head and continues the next day. In the remaining this and the next two games Dickinson engineers magnificent victories while dispelling the myth of Glenn McGrath's super-ability on wickets that don't move off the seam and also handing-out the most severe punishment ever seen by striking Brett Lee for 23 sixes all told, plus lots and lots of fours, off not that many overs. England win an Ashes series in England, which last happened 9 days before he was born.

I will be interested in the rest of the forum's response to that :happy:

Mine would be this:

Australia v New Zealand 2007 World Cup final in Barbados:

New Zealand 278-7 - 50 overs (Walsh 112*, Taylor 86, Fleming 78; Gillespie 3-39)
Australia 273-6 - 49.5 overs (Watson 82*, Ponting 69; Walsh 3-41)

Australia require 6 to win off the last ball to win their 4th World Cup:

49.5 Oram to Watson OUT: pitched up full toss by Jacob Oram, Shane Watson gets under it, hits it straight, it is going for six, no, it has been caught. Walsh leaps up in the air using his height to his advantage and catches it one handed and lands inside the boundary rope and New Zealand win by 5 runs to take out their first World Cup.

:D

Hey I am entitled to dream :D :p

Cmon Guys atleast dream something which is remotely possible. We all know 1000 runs in tests or 5 (similar no.s) all out for Aussies is pretty near impossible. What I meant was something which has say 1% chance of happening :) Within realistic limitations ;)
