Australia vs South Africa – 1999 World Cup:
In the semi-final clash against Australia, South Africa had registered a tie, but there had faced an exit due to the poor net run-rate.
The Proteas bowlers had bowled outstandingly well which further saw them restricting Australia’s strong batting line-up. However, skipper Steve Waugh and veteran batsman Michael Bevan had slammed fifty apiece.
Besides, during bowling Kangaroos saw legendary leg-spinner pulling things back for them with a four-wicket haul.
In the thrilling semis, Lance Klusenar did his best, which further saw the Proteas required one run off four deliveries.
Amid a pressure-cooker situation, Allan Donald had made a mess after Klusenar had miscued a shot. Following the chaos, Donald had scampered for a single who was found shot at the striker’s end only to be well short of his crease. Thus, it meant the game had culminated on a tie with Australia making it to the grand finale based on better net run-rate.
