Classic Cricket Clip


The Classic Cricket Clip is weekly feature which is meant to highlight glorious crickets moments from the past to rekindle some of your favorite memories. It's really just a chance for me to be a jingoistic ass.

In honor of the ever important 16th anniversary of Pakistan's 1992 World Cup win, here are the highlights from the final.



The action itself isn't that fascinating but the official theme song from that year pushes the experience to another level. I dare you to try not humming it for the rest of the day. It's impossible not to. It's seared on to your brain 10 seconds in like the first time you hear Canon in D Minor or, you know, a tumor. You can find a bonus clip here, because I didn't want to embed it. It's the trophy presentation ceremony and it features Imran Khan's famous speech that marked the end of his career. Surprisingly remarkably douchey.
