Javed Miandad, who until this match had endured a very mediocre tournament by his standards averaging only 27.25 with 218 runs from 8 innings, sparked to life against one of the strongest bowling attacks one could come up against. With Pakistan stuttering at a miserable 47/5 by the 12th over, he went on to add 111 runs for the 6th wicket alongside captain Imran Khan to aid in their recovery. He also added some very useful runs alongside the tailenders and lashed out at the likes of Michael Holding and Curtly Ambrose towards the end of the innings, thereby denting their once respectable bowling figures and bringing up a century off 123 balls. Miandad remained unbeaten on 118 off 134 balls as Pakistan finished with 259 from their 50 overs after having been 47/5 at one stage; surely one of the top batting performances of the tournament.

That early bit of carnage inflicted by Viv Richards and Chris Gayle during their brief 8-over partnership for the 2nd wicket which yielded 66 runs seemed to have dented the Pakistani's bowlers' confidence levels beyond repair. Luck continued to elude Richards, who had his innings cut short yet again after having gotten off to a very good start, but Gayle took over the baton quite impressively scoring 75 off 84 balls. Clive Lloyd, Garry Sobers and Rohan Kanhai completed the rest of the job as the West Indies won by 5 wickets with 10 balls to spare, thereby guaranteeing themselves a place in the tournament final. Pakistan, for whom Wasim Akram and Imran Khan bowled with great heart but got very little support from the other end, will have to battle it out with the winner of the Elimination Final between South Africa and New Zealand.

Pollock claimed 3 for 30 from his 9 overs and Donald an even more impressive 3 for 23 from 7 overs in a high quality display of pace bowling.

Jacques Kallis continued to be a thorn in the flesh for bowlers in the competition despite the lack of a cavalier approach when it came to his batting. This was already his 5th half-century of the competition after having batted a total of 9 innings, and his third in succession. His anchoring knock had once again allowed Lance Klusener to bat with full freedom, and he did so with a 35-ball 37 to take South Africa to victory with nearly 10 overs to spare. That was it for New Zealand's campaign. And so..

Man of the match: Jacques Kallis (South Africa)

Good stuff from us beating the Pakis to give us that mental boost before the final :D

Haynes duck was the only sad part, but I think he'll still play the final.
 
That was a tremendous recovery. Our middle order's bad form has hurt us. Its time even the great Zaheer will have to face the axe.

Lineup rules

1) A proper wicket-keeper (:wk:/:wkb:/:arwk:) in your XI.
2) A minimum of 6 players marked to bowl.
3) Players ruled out due to injury cannot be selected.
4) The time limit for posting lineups is 96 hours. I will likely go with a random lineup if your lineup isn't posted within that time.
5) A minimum of 13 players in your squad must be capped in the main tournament starting from Round 1 to Round 5. If your team makes it to the Super Sixes stage, the requirement is 15 players.

Explanation on pitch types

Dusty - Plenty of turn on offer for spinners and a good place to bat for spin-savvy batsmen. Good pace bowlers are still likely to thrive.
Evenly balanced - Provides an evenly balanced contest for all disciplines.
Flat - A batsman-friendly pitch which provides little or no assistance to bowlers. Expect big totals.
Green - A lot of movement on offer, which makes it ideal for bowlers capable of swinging the ball. Quite regular to find in most European countries.
Hard - Ideal conditions for batting. Good deal of bounce on offer for fast bowlers as well. Could go either way.
Dry/Slow - Ideal for slow and spin bowlers as the name suggests. Sometimes quite difficult to bat on.

Saqlain Mushtaq, who had picked just 8 wickets at an average of 43.25 from 7 matches in the competition leading up to this match shot to prominence with a brilliant 4-wicket haul in this all important semi-final clash against an in-form South Africa. Three of his four victims were trapped leg before, having no clue whatsoever to his doosra. He was well supported by captain Imran Khan, who had made a couple of early inroads into the South African lineup by dismissing both Herschelle Gibbs and Gary Kirsten cheaply. He eventually finished with 3 for 39 from 10 overs, by far his best spell of a rather lean season with the ball by his usually high standards.

Apart from the usually reliable duo of Hashim Amla and Jacques Kallis scoring half-centuries, there were no other contributions of note in the innings for South Africa who were bowled out for a below par 217 from 46.2 overs. Pakistan are yet to bat, but one could say South Africa's semi-final blues in major one-day tournaments has struck again.

Pakistan had lost Majid Khan, Zaheer Abbas and Javed Miandad quite cheaply today, prompting Saeed Anwar to play a very restrained knock of 64 off 97 balls rather than going after the bowling like he usually does. He added 70 runs for the 5th wicket alongside Sarfraz Ahmed to rebuild the Pakistani innings from 89/4, allowing Imran Khan to come in at No 7 and finish things off quite easily with an aggressive 39 off 27 balls.

Pakistan were through to face the West Indies in the final, which would now be a rematch of the Season I finale which also featured these two teams. It was Pakistan who triumphed back then by a very convincing 150-run margin. South Africa, after having played so well throughout the competition will have to settle for 3rd place on the overall standings.

Spare a thought for Jacques Kallis who scored 474 runs in the tournament at an awe-inspiring average of 67.71 with 6 half-centuries from 10 matches, whilst also claiming 3 wickets at 21.33 on the odd occasion when a South African team boasting of Shaun Pollock, Allan Donald, Dale Steyn, Makhaya Ntini, Clive Rice and Lance Klusener actually needed him to roll his arm over.

@Dipak/@Samuels @Fenil


Lineup rules

1) A proper wicket-keeper (:wk:/:wkb:/:arwk:) in your XI.
2) A minimum of 6 players marked to bowl.
3) Players ruled out due to injury cannot be selected.
4) The time limit for posting lineups is 96 hours. I will likely go with a random lineup if your lineup isn't posted within that time.
5) A minimum of 13 players in your squad must be capped in the main tournament starting from Round 1 to Round 5. If your team makes it to the Super Sixes stage, the requirement is 15 players.

Explanation on pitch types

Dusty - Plenty of turn on offer for spinners and a good place to bat for spin-savvy batsmen. Good pace bowlers are still likely to thrive.
Evenly balanced - Provides an evenly balanced contest for all disciplines.
Flat - A batsman-friendly pitch which provides little or no assistance to bowlers. Expect big totals.
Green - A lot of movement on offer, which makes it ideal for bowlers capable of swinging the ball. Quite regular to find in most European countries.
Hard - Ideal conditions for batting. Good deal of bounce on offer for fast bowlers as well. Could go either way.
Dry/Slow - Ideal for slow and spin bowlers as the name suggests. Sometimes quite difficult to bat on.
 
160/3 and we got them out for 217 and that partnership between Sarfaraz and Imran showed our depth. The middle order's form is still a concern but I'm hoping they are just waiting to perform on a big stage and what better stage in the final against the WI? We have beaten them before and we surely do it again! We will go unchanged.

Toss: West Indies won the toss and chose to bat


We all gather here today at the end of a gruelling 51-match season to witness two powerhouses of ODI cricket take on each other at the world's biggest cricketing venue, the Melbourne Cricket Ground, boasting a capacity of more than 100,000. The two teams have an evenly matched head-to-head record after having met twice in the tournament - Pakistan beating West Indies by 13 runs at Hobart, and West Indies triumphing over Pakistan by 5 wickets in Sydney. West Indies and Pakistan have faced each other once previously in a LAB final all the way back in LAB Season I, a match which Pakistan won by a resounding 150-run margin. It comes as no surprise that the two teams in question hold an intense rivalry in this league, though not so much in real life.

Viv Richards then took on Wasim Akram and Saqlain Mushtaq. The two great bowlers appeared powerless against him, conceding 10 and 15 respectively. Haynes at the other end had just brought up a 46-ball fifty as well. Things were looking good for the West Indies.

But his luck ran out early once again, as it has all season. He was yet again dismissed in the 30s after having gotten off to a flyer as the Pakistani skipper Imran Khan celebrated his first wicket of the match. Richards' tournament ended with only 208 runs from 7 innings at an average of 29.71, although with a strike-rate of 103.48, just showing how bad his luck had been with the bat despite him striking the ball pretty well.

Brian Lara got his innings underway with a masterful pull off Shoaib Akhtar whose pace helped the ball travel all the way over the legside boundary for six. The West Indies were scoring their runs at well above 7 an over upon reaching the 20-over mark, causing frustration in the Pakistan ranks.

Wasim Akram has had better days with the ball. Even so, he finished with 2 wickets at the end of an expensive 10-over spell to somewhat redeem himself towards the death.

Pakistan managed to keep the West Indies from reaching 300, but only just. The West Indian innings closed at 295/7, with Garry Sobers notching up a half-century in the final over. That will take some chasing on a big ground like the MCG, and against a bowling lineup boasting of Joel Garner, Michael Holding, Curtly Ambrose, Lance Gibbs and Sobers himself. At the moment, West Indies definitely appear to be the favorites to win the title that had eluded them in Seasons I, II and V (which they eventually won in Season VI).

It was a very slow start for Pakistan. The openers Majid Khan and Saeed Anwar were a tad too overcautious in their attempt to play out the likes of Garner and Holding safely through the first ten.

Zaheer Abbas was a breath of fresh air in the circumstances. Garner, Holding, Ambrose, Sobers, Gibbs - he scored boundaries off them all to ease the pressure on Pakistan's batsmen.

But just as things were starting to look better for Pakistan, a needless run out saw Anwar back on his way to the pavillion for 25. Joel Garner's mighty throwing arm had done the trick.

Having gone scoreless of his last eight deliveries, Abbas presented the supercat Clive Lloyd with an easy catch at mid-on in an unsuccessful attempt to break the shackles. At the end of 20 overs, Pakistan had managed just 78. West Indies at the same stage had scored 143. Enough said.

Inzamam-ul-Haq scratched his way to an uneasy 7 before popping another easy catch to Desmond Haynes at slip off Curtly Ambrose. To make matters worse, Sarfraz Ahmed, a key lower-order contributor for Pakistan throughout the competition with 3 half-centuries to his name, was also dismissed just two balls later. The situation appeared hopeless as skipper Imran Khan joined Javed Miandad at the wicket.

With the required rate now touching 9.5 runs per over, Imran Khan went after the part-timer Chris Gayle as one might have expected and hit him for a big six over long-on.

Chris Gayle eventually had the last laugh dismissing him off the last ball of the over while he attempted another slog but could only edge the ball onto his stumps.

Miandad watched on helplessly from one end as wickets continued to tumble at the other. There were to be no lower-order pyrotechnics from Wasim Akram and Mohammad Amir today. West Indies needed just 2 more wickets to clinch the title, with Pakistan looking well and truly out despite the presence of Miandad needing 156 to win off the last 15 overs.

Javed Miandad hadn't thrown in the towel just yet and went on to bring up a half-century. Pakistan now need 123 runs off 50 balls to pull off the greatest come-from-behind victory ever. Is it still possible?

That finally was that. The West Indies gained redemption for their comprehensive 150-run loss to Pakistan in the very first season of this league 5 years ago, by inflicting an equally crushing defeat upon rivals who had beaten them as recently as the Super Sixes stage of this tournament. With a squad boasting the likes of Desmond Haynes, Gordon Greenidge, Viv Richards, Garry Sobers, Joel Garner, Michael Holding and Malcolm Marshall just to name a few, it was arguably their tournament to lose. But they still suffered their fair share of injury-related problems and poor form from players such as Greenidge, Richards and Roberts. It was an impressive effort on their part to win the final against a very strong Pakistan lineup despite being forced to leave out some of the aforementioned players.

Pakistan were second only to the West Indies throughout the competition, and were the only team to actually beat them during the course of the tournament where they won all but one of their 10 matches overall. At the same time their unpredictability meant they were also the only team to lose to Sri Lanka, who were able to beat only England and the minnows throughout the competition. There were some fine individual performances in their squad such as Wasim Akram's 24 wickets at 21.08 from only 10 matches, the most by any bowler in the tournament and by quite a distance, and Mohammad Amir's 19 wickets at 19.74 from 9 matches in a legends league despite being only 25 years of age with his best years in international cricket still ahead of him. All in all, it was a fine effort on their part to come this far and ahead of more fancied teams such as Australia, India and South Africa, all of whom flamed out at one point or the other.

Desmond Haynes was undisputedly Player of the Match for his classy 100 which helped set up a big total (by this ground's standards) that proved way too much for Pakistan. There were several claimants for Player of the Tournament, namely Wasim Akram (24 wickets at 21.08; 124 runs at 20.67), Mohammad Amir (19 wickets at 19.74), Jacques Kallis (474 runs at 67.71 with 6 fifties; 3 wickets at 21.33), Brian Lara (447 runs at 55.88) and Glenn McGrath (14 wickets at 17.64, ER 3.61). But the honor would go to Garry Sobers, for his awe-inspiring returns of 303 runs at an average of 61.00 (3 half-centuries) and 12 wickets at 26.92 (ER 4.21) from 9 matches in the competition. West Indies and the world in general were much poorer for the fact that he played just 1 ODI in real life and scored a duck. But fortunately, that 1 ODI was enough to get him selected for the West Indies in this ODI-only players competition.

So endeth Season IX of Legends At Battle, otherwise known as the All-time ODI Championship, which saw as many as 51 matches being played in total over the course of 4 months. The overall standings at the end of the tournament were as follows:
