My Top 5 Magical World Cup Moments
Malinga’s hat-trick
Sri Lanka’s king of sling claimed a second World Cup hat-trick in a six-wicket haul against hapless Kenya in Colombo.

The Tied Game - that's where the WC came alive for me
KOB and Ireland vs. England NZ's 100 runs in the final 5 vs. Pak South Africa's quarter final choke, failing to win a KO game in a WC yet again. Moment in question should be Oram's catch off Kallis, that started the slide. MSD's 6. In order of occurance. Plenty of other awesome moments tho, such as England in general until the KO (losing to BD, beating RSA, above mentioned moments), Robin Peterson coming off with the new ball, Malinga's six yorkers, Wahab Riaz's ball to Yuvi, Steyn's five-fer, Malinga dismissing Sachin in the final, Jayawaradene's shot to bring up his 100, which kinda launced the final surge for SL to get to what seemed at the time an imposing total. Dilshan being a revelation with the ball, UV's rebirth and general awesomness, Munaf's caught and bowled, plenty of other fine catches and fielding efforts. Zak's second/third spells. Ajmal vs. Tendulkar. Afridi's celebration pose. Balaji Rao. RTD's 100 vs. England. Harbhajan dismissing Umar Akmal, the moment that you felt India had this game won. MSD's Six over backwards point which brought the equation down to 37 off 41. Last edited by zorax; 03-04-2011 at 10:02 AM. |

That Wahab Riaz in-swinging full toss to Yuvraj has to be the ball of the tournament. Very full, very fast, and superb late in-swing..........reminded you of Wasim and Waqar at their best
lol@ the reaction of the guy in the crowd......he says "what the hell is going on"..........  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UubZMXgVOrw

Hard to narrow it down to 5, all of these were great moments. A couple that haven't been mentioned would be England's turnaround against South Africa and Hiral Patel's six off Tait.
