- 1989 boxing day ODI between Australia and Sri Lanka played at the MCG before 45,102. Aussies scored 228 - Dean Jones top scored with 85 and Simon O'Donnell whipped 57 off 67 late in the innings. Ranatunga claimed three wickets and top scored for Sri Lanka with 55. Sri Lanka dismissed for 198 with Man of the Match O'Donnell claiming four wickets.
16.34 Ranathunga played the same shot to win the 96 wc for SriLanka against Australia
Still one of my all-time favorite cricket games 96 WC
proud of Srilankan 🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰
16:34 The same winning run shot he played against Australia in 1996 WC Final
Such a different approach to ODIs back then.. teams would sleepwalk through the first 20 or so overs and really look to pile on runs in the final 10-15 overs..
Beautiful approach, made cricket exciting. I loved this cricket. Cricket hasn't been the same since 1996 world cup.
@@gurujojo8992 first 15 over power plays were enforced in Australia, still didn't change the approach much till Jayasuriya changed it around 1996 world cup. Because opening batsmen of that generation, had been trained to play risk free cricket in the early overs, since childhood.
Bill Lawry and Tony Greig in fine form.
yes
Two of the greatest cricket callers of all time
This the real cricket which effected by T20 very badly.
Can't Forget Tony Greigh Both Captain Arjuna Ranathunga n Mark Taylor Class Players 👏👌
A brilliant catch taken by Ravi Ratnayake off his own bowling to see the back of Mark Taylor.
good bowler that ravi ratnayaka.
Is anyone else getting turned on by the sight of these Sri Lankans in their dark blue uniforms??
The player kits were so nice and simple back then.
Only 3 bowlers and 3 parttimer wow Aussie
The debut game of some Sri Lankan player called Sanath Jayasuriya too. wonder what became of him.
Was Mark Taylor's debut too. And Sanath's ODI career would last 14 years longer than Tubby's. And be pretty much more dynamic too.
@Insert Name Here Lol he became Saitama before Saitama
He had 48 man of the match awards ( second most ) and 1996 World Cup Player of the Tournament
Great limited overs player ..not as good a test player but still made a triple hundred. Probably didn't live up to his full potential as a test player
@@TheSkirvo wft r u talkin bout. He averaged 40 as an opener in tests.
Did anyone know a player called jsuriya?
Yes it was his debut. Rest is history.
Yes
No one did think that he is going to change the world cricket
@@priyankaramahagammullage2892with spring bats, he still didn't
Jayasuriya had hair who would have thought

😂😂
😂😂😂
lol🤣😂
3:30....Ranatunga Steaming in...lol...
5th over 12 runs inc.6 those days were never comes back
Awesome upload!!!
I was at this match, I had recently turned 9, and it was my first time at a match live!! I still remember the awesome pull shot 6 Mark Taylor hit.
Also how awesome were those kits!! By far the best one day shirts we've ever had.
Fantastic! Great kits. Bit baseball-y.. but streets ahead of what todays graphic cluster****.
Costa Sports Yeah lover these. they were simpler back then. Also Sri Lanka inverted their colours and have stayed with this colour scheme
Costa Sports Yup! This was truly the golden age of one day cricket.
Back then you'd get 50,000-75,000 for one dayers at the MCG. These days you'd be lucky to crack 20,000 if India aren't involved.
Also modern "kits" are so lame and boring.
The B&H WSC was by far the best ODI competition the world of cricket has ever seen.
Matthew Caligari you are right best shirt Aussies ever had so beautiful
Matthew Caligari I think now austrailians loves soccer more than cricket
Those days anything above 200 is a competative total.
It still is in a T20 match.
ODI on Boxing Day?
Think I was there for the evening session
One of the last times there was no test match on Boxing Day at the MCG.
Costa Sports, upload Roshan Mahanama's 119 odi innings vs Zimbabwe from 1994 & please let me know.
@3:00 see this kiddo, leaves game as a legend, and changed cricket for ever
How good were playing kits in those days?
They've just bought retro ones out. Only thing it has a Alinta Gas logo on the front 😡
The dresses were so nice, simple and jazzy in those days, now the so called cricket players look like walking ads !!!!!
Couldn't agree more.
Unusual seeing AB wearing short sleeves.
Classic ODI uniforms these
Great cricket I love both captains
Mitsubishi Lancer ad on the boundary line 😀😀 @26:52 mark a brand that withstood testing times?
RIP my favorite Dean Jones.....Respect from India..
He was 10 yrs ahead of all
Back when Arjuna Ranatunga used to bowl..
ranatunga taking so many important wickets
Like a lot of cricket lovers I didn't know much about Sri Lankan cricket during the 80's. I have read their seam bowlers had decent pace. While they weren't world beaters the opening bowlers look like good fast medium bowlers.
During the 80's the likes of Boon would have been considered a good one day player yet by modern standards the only batsman in the Australian batting line up would make it the current one day game is Dean Jones who was a brilliant one day player.
Never ever compare people and players of different eras. There was no power play, no fre hit, no rule about bouncer, no third umpire and difficult pitches. Moreover, MCG had the longest boundary.
Every generation faces different chalenges, depending on age and avalable resources. Apart from these facts, one day game had been evolving as an exciting form. You would not witness ennings with strike rate above hundred on regular bases.
Waugh , boon, Jones, border, O'Donnell, wouldn't have to many problems in the modern era. Better bowlers and pitches then now in my opinion.
Dean Jones was a decade ahead of the rest
13:34 helicopter shot. Is that dhoni? 🤧💩😂
This is 1989-90 season. Sri Lanka really came of age sometimes around 1992-93 season. They ceased to be minnows after that. No pushovers anymore.

Been looking for this match forever! Cheers mate
Welcome!
uncanny the number of batsmen who get caught (or dropped) at short mid wicket
O'Donnell hitting big 6 , making 50, smashing all round. SriLankan fielding was good even then. Descent bowling, took sharp catches...nice upload
Srilankans always better fielding team in Asia. India started good in recently. Pakistan still needs improvement
@@vijayakumarsundaram4605 yes. I agree.
8:02 Asian guy is watching a cricket match! Such a rare occasion! Looks like he has no clue what so ever!
Super Catch by merv
What happened to the traditional boxing day test match ? Were there no big teams available to tour Aus in the summer of 1989 ?
Very rare to see Allan Border in short sleeves.
Is this in 1989..😮🤔🤔
What's so funny about it being 1989?
Bill: Grayeemee Labrooy? His name's Graeme Max
Max: Well Bill, all his teammates have long and complicated names. Seems a pity really for this young man to keep missing out.
Bill: Geez you're fucked in the head sometimes Max.
T-7 years till WC win. Sri Lankas rise was wild. All great sons of the soil who came out for the country when we needed some hope.
Well ranatunga looks so thin 😂
Mahanama
Jaisuriya
Tilakaratne
Arvinda
all played in 1996 World Cup
All Played 1999 WC as well & failed miserably
Classic uniforms in this era
Was this the last time they didn't line the camera up properly with the pitch?
Those were the days when teams used to defend scores around 220 with just above average bowling and good fielding in Australia. The pitches used to be good for bowlers too till the very end. Batters had to earn their runs. Even a total of 220 made things interesting.
I thought boxing day, always had a test match.
Only since 1997.
O
It was slow batting back in those days 106 after 30 overs Aussies were
Ironic that the man who'd thtow that playbook out the window debuted in this match
Wow love these vids!!
Cheers! More to come.
Strange how they hadn't managed to line up the cameras properly.
Wait why was there an ODI on boxing day in Australia?
Please apload Sri Lanka vs Australia test series 1995 in Australia.
I am only here to watch jayasurya.
