Iconic Moments in Cricket

---The Underarm---


Quoted by Richie Benaud 'as the most disgraceful thing he had witnessed in a cricket field.'On February 1,1981  New Zealand were playing Australia in the third of the best of five world series in Melbourne,Australia.15 runs needed of the last over bowled by Trevor Chappell,younger brother of both Ian and Greg.It came down to 7 off the last ball with Brian Mckechnie on strike.Captain Greg Chappell asked Trevor to roll the ball along the ground.Underarm bowling was still legal but unethical.Greg's unsporting conduct was widely criticized and since underarm bowling was banned. 

---The Battlefield---


Pakistan's Javed Miandad clashed with Dennis Lillee during the November 1981 Perth Test.They both collided when the batsman completed a run.Lillee kicked Javed on the leg and Javed reacted angrily by threatening to hit Lillee with the bat.Umpire Tony Crafter is seen between the two.Lillee was blamed for the incident.

---Sportsmanship---


Bret Lee and Michael Kasporowicz had bought Australia within 3 runs of winning before Kasporowicz got himself out during The Ashes of 2005.At the end Flintoff broke away from the team celebrations to console Lee.Despite the intense rivalry of both the teams ,they remain friends.


---Six 6's---


September 19,2007 Yuvraj hit six 6's of Stuart Broad's over in a World T20 match .He became only the 4th batsman in history to accomplish this feat in senior cricket.

---By the Slip---


Australia fielded this field in the Harare Sports cub against Zimbabwe.They won the only test by 10 wickets and won all the 3 ODI's.

Classy-Onnu konnu song [Nandalala]


Onnukkonnu-K.J.Yesudas





-------Lyrics--------

ஒன்னு கொன்னு  துணை இருக்கும்  உலகத்திலே 
அன்பு ஒன்னு தான் 
அனாதையா
யாரு இத கண்டு கொள்வார் ?
கைகளிலே ஏந்தி கொள்வார் 
சொந்தம் சொல்ல யார் வருவார்
அன்புக்கு யார் அன்பு செய்வார்...
 
ஒன்னுக்கொன்னு ........
உன்னை போல என்னை எண்ணினால் நெஞ்சில் கங்கை ஆறு ஓடுமே 
துன்பம் தீர்க்க நீளும் கைகளில் சொர்க்கம் வந்து கை கோர்க்குமே 
கோவில் குளம் யாவும் இங்கே அன்பின் அடையாளம் அல்லவா
ஏழை கென்று தந்ததெல்லாம் ஈசன் கையில் சேரும் அல்லவா 
கண்கள் இல்லா மனிதருக்கு கால்கள் என நாம் நடந்தால் 
நம் பூமியில் அனாதை யார் அனாதை யார்.... 

ஒன்னுக்கொன்னு ...........
மண்ணில் தானே எல்லை கோடுகள் மனதில் கோடு யார் போட்டது 
பெற்றால் தானா பிள்ளை பூமியில் எல்லாம் எல்லாம் நம் பார்வையில் 
நாதி அற்ற பூவும் இல்லை நட்டு வைத்தல் வந்தது 
நாதி அற்ற நாம் பிறந்தோம் அன்னை இன்றி யார்  வந்தது 
எங்கிருந்தோ இங்கு வந்தோம் வந்ததெல்லாம் சொந்தங்களே  
நம் பூமியில் அனாதை யார் அனாதை யார் ...

The Sailing Stones


   Sailing stones or sliding stones are mysterious phenomenon in which the rocks move through a smooth valley floor leaving tracks behind.They have been recorded and observed in and around Death valley and Racetrack Playa.The forces behind these rock movements are mysterious and they have not been found by research.
   The stones move only every two or three years and most tracks develop over three or four years.Trails differ in both direction and length. Rocks that start next to each other may travel parallel for a time, before one abruptly changes direction to the left, right, or even back the direction it came from. Trail length also varies – two similarly sized and shaped rocks may travel uniformly, then one could move ahead or stop in its track.
