I am from.India these matches were widely covered in Indian newspaper especially then newly launched Mid-day . I was appearing for my matric Board exams. Headlines grabbed attention of every passerby at the station stalls like " Akram magic spell flatten England". "Younis demolishes England" and many such.
Thompson & lillee Walsh & Ambrose McGrath & Warne all were legends of the game no doubt including marshall..roberts..holding..imran BUT what the two 'W's Have none of them posess...the ability to swing the bowl both ways at high pace in all grounds..pitches and could play in all 3 formats. There are certainly fast bowlers with more wickets e.g. Pollock..ntini..steyn..Anderson etc. At the time in there peak there was no 1like them ever....the deadliest fast bowlers ever..period. Wasim & waqars economy rate and average in both odI's and test matches is out of this world. Especially when legends themselves have picked them in best xii ever by Lara..tendulkar..ponting..Viv Richards have all picked these 2 legends of the gane. If there was t20 cricket than like now...with limited 4 overs..you tell me who can bowl better at the death than these two magicians...answer no1... Imran Khan's inheritors.....Wasim & waqar legends of the game.
This Series Was Something That A few Days Back, I Was Barely 18 Then. The Duo of Deadly Ws' Got Under Probe For Ball Tempering But All Technology Failed to Traced Any Doubt Over On These Two All Time Greatest Pair Ever. English Media Got Mad And Gave Them A Tag Deadly Ws'. There's No Pair Like Them In the History Of Test Cricket Since 1877. What Made Them Totally Different from Others Was Their High Quality Ability to Uprooted The Stumps And Untied The Laces Of Shoes. My Salute to Both WS.

United Kingdom so you’re telling me that bowlers such as McGrath, Lillee, Marshall, Holding, Pollock, Donald, Ambrose, Walsh, Roberts, Anderson and many more aren’t great because they got batsmen out caught behind instead of bowled? If there was a list of cricket’s worst opinions, then this would be very high

@@thomasmuller6301 No way! are u sure do they were great bowlers even on dead pitches of india & pakistan. Both W'S were not dependent on pitches they were ruthless on any surface.
Test Cricket at it's very best I was 1 year old at that time born in 1991. I remember my mother bought a VHS cassette of Tom n Jerry for me but my uncle(Mamu) recorded the highlights of this match on that VHS by mistake.
Waqar bowled bullets those days! Arguably the fastest to date. I admire him alot for not compromising pace and side-arm action for longevity. Until he was forced due to injuries. He already had 200 wickets in 33 tests by then!!! Amazing stupendous.
as an indian really wasim akram waqar bowling sensational i disagree ball tampering 27 years back still fresh and imran khan prime minister watching i think he must be the most handsome ever person in this planet any way best of luck for pak in 2019 world cup.
Yes I remember this match like yesterday was very exciting and nerve wracking at the same time! a brilliant victory for Pakistan in the end made possible by a vital partnership between the two w's wasim and waqar great guts and determination shown by the fast bowling pair it was a fitting ending to thrilling test match.
bhargav rao wasim akram is not Indian and why do you disagree with ball tempering when they all admit they did it and yes you are right in one thing that IMRAN KHAN is the most handsome cricketer ever
imran khan won the case in 1995 in england court when botham the most influential cricketer lost 5 lakhs pound when the court declared him not guilty like an emperor he walked out the only country which invented reverse sweep by mushtaq mohammad reverse swing by sarfraz nawaz doosra by saqlain such talent no country possessed because of inconsistency infighting match fixing they underachieved they should have dominated world cricket like west indies in 70s aus in late 1990s to 2007 lack of professionalism was the main difference.
1992 WC was first time I started watching cricket. Pakistan's WC win was followed by tour of England. Pakistan won this test series 2-1. Lost the odi series. Odi Games were 55 overs and same series in which England scored 363 in their 55 overs breaking the world record.
Yes. Very unfortunate. Incompetence of PCB. Plus when 2Ws were at their most devastating best in 1991 Pak hardly played a test match. Pak was involved in too much ODI cricket in 90s. 92/93 & 96/97 seasons are prime examples.
@@talhanaeem4364 For Asians, odis were the business. No wonder there were Sharjah tournaments every week on flat pitches 🙏🙏. More money and more entertainment
SAW GLIMPSES OF BOTH IK AND NAWAZ SHARIF IN THE SAME MATCH! THIS IS DESTINY. NAWAZ IN JAIL AND IK IS TODAY THE PRIME MINISTER. AMAZING TWIST OF DESTINY.
I was at the first test at Edgbaston on the Sunday I think. The match was ruined by bad weather on the first 2 days. Wasn't this Ian Botham's final test match?
Pakistani bowling always win matches for them but batting as always let them down. 😂 such unpredictable team in world cricket who sometimes beat themselves rather than beaten up by opponents.😂🙏
HEY - these highlights missed the famous run out near the end. That was one of the most exciting episodes of the match. You can see it at 20 mins 52 secs on this video: th-cam.com/video/vosKNLK4T5s/w-d-xo.html
That Pakistani opening bowler was over rated. He should have been dropped some time ago. As with everything Pakistani Cricket Board ran/runs on favouritism/corruption.
The great Waqar Younis...I have never seen a bowler like Waqar...
Imran in the crowd oozing class as he always did. His efforts to win the World Cup for Pakistan at 39 was nothing short of amazing. What a man!

Great comment. Waqar was the wicket taker. His economy maybe high but he used to strike.
Both wasim and waqar were poetry in motion..inheritor's of imran's legacy

It shows how good Test cricket is. It still has a rewatch value. The T20 circus is just money making scheme while real cricket is still Test cricket

Thank you for sharing this fantastic test match.

Waqar and Bond were giant killers. Deadly, their unreal strike rates prove that
@@Aman-nk5uq add Steyn to the list. In his prime he bowled out swingers at real pace. not many could do that with control he had.
The duo did it with the bat and the ball as well wasim and waqar

This is last time PAK played 5test match series.
Yes first test series I followed and pakistans last 5 test series
Is this true??
@@Skating_157 yes, Pakistan 4 test vs ENG in 2010. All other series 3 Match or 2 match
Yes. Very unfortunate.
Incompetence of PCB.

Golden Era of Pakistan Cricket.

What a wonderful match 👌
World's no 1 cricketer wasim akram
No1 odi cricketer
Golden era of Pakistan cricket. I am witness.
Wasim akram was a match winner
wasim waqar duo 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
In this video..the sitting Prime Minister of 1992 (Nawaz Sharif) as well as the would be Prime Minister of 2018 (Imran Khan) were seen..
I had never seen ramiz raja playing .. sometimes I wonder why was he kept in team for such a longtime .. very very strange
during the round robin in 92, Ramiz had high scores. One century vs New Zealand was very important too.
EJAZ NAGORI..ME TOO..EVER I HAVE SEEN HIM DURING PLAYING GOING TO PAVILLION...THATS IT
He was Aitchisonian. N had links with high management.
Very true - very poor average for a senior test player. Nothing to warrant his place as a fielder. He obviously had friends in Pakistan management.
Waqar and wasim... best ever for sure
Ramiz Raza was the Akash Chopra of Pakistan. 😀😀😀
True
Who is Akash Chopra. R u refering useless cricketer. Then he was
I dont know any performance from Chopra but Raja has hit 3 WC centuries mind you !!!
*@**13:12**, THE KING LION shows up! The entire English team goes on the backfoot.*
I thought Pakistan lost this one, but the legend Wasim Akram had other ideas
For a change, the 2 Ws pair up with the bat and win the match for Pakistan ...
And the great #PMIK in 13:13
Akram saved the match ✌😍
Hick loved both ws lot
Watched that match live epic thriller classic
Wasim Akram the great
Memorable match and a very "Pakistan" way to win what should've been an easy chase!
chris lewis almost single handly destroyed pakistan, 3 excellent top order wickets in pak 2nd innings,
W.Akram was a real king of swing
When I feel like I am loosing sport motivation. I have to see my role models.
13:14 little did England know that 8 wickets in the 4th innings will be their last wickets in the test match
Imran Khan the legend !!!!
What a session 1990 t0 2000 for Pakistan i love it but I sad about that I could not seen
Rashid Ali Noni
Yes, then politics and bribes messed up everything.
@@mid9465 I don't know Beacuse I was soo small my date of birth 1996
Wasim akram only match winner with his bat and ball
Great victory by Pakistan 👏♥️🎊🎉
whatever happened to Salisbury???..seemed a great prospect..

your description is still True. Remember 1st Test of PAK v ENG 2020 series. Eng were at one time 117/5 chasing 277 but Pak still manged to lose.

Cricket being clapped instead of cheered… wow
Tuk tuk batting is never good cricket. In fact it increases the chances of those batsmen getting out. Attacking cricket is always the way forward.
Ramiz was always good for nothing
yes. saeed anwar should've been there. he played his 1st test in 1989 and 2nd in 1993. kept out for 4 years. huge injustice

That Pakistani opening bowler was over rated. He should have been dropped some time ago. As with everything Pakistani Cricket Board ran/runs on favouritism/corruption.
Aaqib javed is the godfather of pakistan pace bowling
Aqeeb Javed was a good bowler. Unfair to compare him to the 2 WWs
No doubt ww's were deadly in 90s no need to tamper ball wasim has the ability to swing either side. He truly king of swing along with aqeeb
90 mph reverse swing and seam ...fuck that. What can you do 😳🤣
