I remember watching this match and supporting Sri Lanka. It was late night in India and the match had many delays and stoppages. Gilchrist played the innings of his life. This partnership gave me hope. But when Sanga fell at the wrong time, defeat was almost certain and the moment Jayasuriya was bowled by Clarke, I turned off the TV and sadly went to bed 😭😭😭 - Love from India 🇮🇳
Jayasuriya, Sangakkara, Jayawardene, Attapattu, Ranatunga, Dharmasena Chaminda Vaas, Muralitharan and so on.. I wish I could go back to my childhood and watch these legends play.
150 runs 105 balls. 8 wickets were in hand.. injustice for the SL side which batted against the rain.. still they made world cup 50% theirs until this point.
Rain ruined the momentum of sri lankan batting Sanath saw the dark clouds through the western side. he knews that they are 14 runs behind the d/l par score so he took the risk and unfortunately the ball went quite low Jayasuriya was reckless as well but everything happens because of the unluckiness we had.to be honest Mahela should had to fight for the reserve day rather than playing in the darkness. I have two opinions of mine 1.after Jayasuriya's dismissal we still had the chance of winning the game if we had some power hitters even before Dilshan get run out we are just 21 runs behind the d/l par score we still had a opportunity 2.If Arjuna would have been there instead of Mahela definitely he will argue with the umpire to take the match to the reserve day rather than playing in the darkness that's the major difference that i see between Mahela and Arjuna. Arjuna is always ready to fight for the justice.
This is how u have to play in the immense pressure specially in d world cup final & dat to against aus like jayasurya & sanga had played hats off to both dese legend
CAN'T JUDGE THE MATCH WINNER BY CONSIDERING ONLY WORLD CUP FINALS ONLY AS PRESSURE MATCH :- In the same 2007 World Cup Semi finals against New Zealand Jayasurya failed for 1 run, Sangakkara failed for 18 run - SEMIFINALS WERE ALSO HIGHLY UNDER PRESSURE KNOCK OUT MATCHES .
Not only that west indians organization is so bad no light in that stadium, 3 or 4 time sri lankan should go in and out,All momentum was lost by that in their match,
If sana was there till the end, it could have been an easy win for SL unfortunately he got out for a shameful deadly delivery, occurred because of the wetness of the pitch after the rain.
Great counter attack by Jayasuriya and Sangakara Two great Champion and Legends of the game unfortunately Srilankan team didn't won the Final 2007 World Cup but, they have played brilliant Cricket throughout the World cup . Lots of appreciation from Pakistan
Was there in person for this World Cup Final. While the Aussies and Gilchrist had an amazing innings, Sri Lanka was ahead on the run rate just before the rains hit. Unfortunately for Sri Lanka, the officials continued play in the rain instead of suspending play and covering up the pitch. By the time they finally stopped play due to rain, Sangakkara had gotten out and the pitch was soaking wet. So when they resumed from the rain stoppage, it was no surprise to see the wickets fall. The ball that Jayasuriya fell victim to barely bounced (skidded along the pitch before hitting the wickets). One never knows how it would have turned out had the rains, the bad light and poor officiating not interfered with play.
Two best batsman of World cricket demolished the finest bowling attack. Sanath and Sanga both are delighted to watch cricket. Due to these players Cricket is most Popular game in sub continent. Thanks for uploading. Love from India
Sanath Jaysurya bowled on very very low ball... Even Sachin or any other batsman can't play this ball... Lucky Aus... Bcoz of this DL goes to Aus.... I was supporting SL...from India... Sachin Ambrose Jaysurya fan
I watched this match live,I was a great supporter of srilankan team through out my life Jasuriya was between D/L method &srilankan win but that only ball of Michael Clerk kept much low throughout that world cup series & Luck have favoured Australia every time in big games
This World Cup got robbed from Sri Lanka by the officials. There was an extra day for any rain interruption, but the officials didn’t wanted to use it. Also, last few overs were played in the dark. People in the stadium couldn’t see what’s going on in the middle.
@@Sashikajay why being so rude, no matter how well sl played its a fact aus are the champions of 2007 wc like england are of 2019,stop going around and calling ppl idiots if u feel so disagreed with
Because of loadshedding I could not watch Sri lankan inning but still remember they could win if rain did not interrupt the match.This was best Sri lankan team which I have seen played in my life.
@@HarshSharma-sy5jw Gilchrist and sanga is in same callibor. Dhoni is different. Dhoni is the best in his own way. But as top order batsmen. These two are the best.
Two great players of world cricket performing best act to witness by all cricket fans. Sanath and Sanga were best during peak of international cricket.
Sehwag is more marvellous batsman than Jayasuriya...check both batsman's records...sehwag more strike rate ,and average than Jayasuriya both odi and test matches
If these both Legends could add up atleast 40-50 runs more Sri Lanka would have easily won the match Also it would be one of the best World Cup Final of all time Highest Run chase in 36 overs and badlight Love from India🇮🇳
No when sanga got out have u seen the equation , they were needed 159 run 18.1 which is not easy even now day's and your are saying they could have easily at that time, it was always matter of one wicket and game end.

It was a completely cheated world cup winning by Australia. If someone else other than a Aussie player (Adam Gilchrist) used a squash ball inside his glove. It will be the reason to give the victory to other team or give another day to play the match again.
@@nuthetiudaysaikiran9384 Yes Bro, according to the statistics u r correct. But remember all 5 times won by not the same Australian team.

Sri Lankans played in a swamp and no playable light was there in the latter part of the Sri Lankan innings.
I was shocked to see Gilchrist batting with a squash ball...its a shame to use unethical advantages....surprised that the Icc did not take any action....truly sri lanka should deserve the 2007 wc
Look at the courage of Sanath Jayasuriya, WOW he was a dominant player in World Cricket At All time#####...Look finally he must hit every ball as four or six...! But he tried his best!!!...rain defeat all of them.....
Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 got cheated out of World Cup this match should’ve went on to the next day instead of reducing overs.

The two best teams in the tournament clashed in the final of the 2007 edition of the ICC Word Cup in Barbados where Adam Gilchrist massacred Sri Lanka with a golf ball in his gloves to gain leverage in shot making... It was claimed by the cricketing fraternity that Gilly gained an undue advantage by a batting with a golf ball... ICC did not have any rules for such an act by a player but rewrote the rules a player cannot gain advantage by batting with an object inside the gloves after the match.... Rain interrupted at the end and match was played in almost darkness before the umpires made the decision that Australia were the champs by DL method.It was quite a bizzare final... A sad day for all the Sri Lankans where the BIA and Colombo Harbour came under attack by the LTTE while the match was played... A day to forget..
Mohamed Feroze the rule at the time if I’m not mistaken was any equipment or object without the knowledge of the opposition or the umpires is not allowed on the field. Gilchrist was a great player no doubt, but had Sri Lanka done what he did tolerance regarding the matter would have resulted differently.

Not only that west indians organization is so bad no light in that stadium,
3 or 4 time sri lankan should go in and out,All momentum was lost by that in their match,

No.......
Check you in this two(mahi,gilly)test cricket average..

Yes,without any doubt. And only as a batsman he is up there in top 5 too
SL my favorite team since 1996 when I was 9 year old. This match was just a heart broken for me I stopped watching cricket after that

Because of loadshedding I could not watch Sri lankan inning but still remember they could win if rain did not interrupt the match.This was best Sri lankan team which I have seen played in my life.
Days when each test playing nation had legends, not like today where only 4 teams are in top bracket and the rest of the teams are fading away.
good to see the great jayasurya hitting as he was in 96-97 singer series, and awesome sangakara.

Lanka scored 2nd fifty only on 27 balls.
without a SQUASH ball
He plays no fear Cricket.He is an awesome one day player and a great spinner also.He is a treat to watch and a terror to the rival teams
World cup final should have been a 50 over one even if that meant playing over 2 days...
