Its Austraila vs South Africa Match!!!

What is the best cricket match ever played?

Austraila vs South Africa 5th and last ODI of a 5-match One-day series, played at the Wanders' Stadium in Johannesburg in 2006, is considered one of the most exciting or you can say 'Best' matches of ODI cricket. In the four matches of the five-match series, both teams had won 2-2 matches. So in the last and fifth match was like a finals in a way. Australia won the toss and captain Ricky Ponting scored 164, Michael Hussey 81, Simon Katich 79 and Adam Gilchrist 55 runs with a huge score of 434 at the loss of four wickets.

After the first innings was over, there was hardly be a cricket fan or a pundit, which may be a threat to Australia in this match. But cricket is called game of uncertainty.
After losing the first wicket on just 3 runs, South Africa won the match with a wicket. Herschelle Gibbs 175, captain Graeme Smith 90, and Mark Boucher, who scored an unbeaten 50 helped South Africa win this match with their exceptional batting performances. In this match, Australia bowler Mike Lewis conceded 113 runs in his 10 overs. It is the most expensive spells in an ODI. Herschelle Gibbs was the man of the match.
This way South Africa still holds a world record of biggest chase in ODI cricket history.

Well, talking about cricket which is always been the fashion for those who are having a deep love for sports…

The best cricket match that was ever played… was South Africa V/s Australia, Johannesburg, on 12th of March, 2006… 

What is the best cricket match ever played?

 In an official overview by the ICC, South Africa versus Australia match at the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg on March 12, 2006, was voted the best ODI match ever played. What's more, is there any good reason why it shouldn't be? The run fest-at Johannesburg is maybe still new in the brains of the individuals who saw it whether at the venue or on Television. Batting to start with, the forceful Aussies aggregated a world record 434 losing 4 wickets in 50 overs. Captain Ricky Ponting's rankling 164 off 105 balls and three half century, one each from Adam Gilchrist, Simon Katich and Michael Hussey, set the tenor of the match. It seemed like it was draperies down for the Proteas. Be that as it may, Herschelle Gibbs and Graeme Smith, who scored 175 and 90 separately, helped South Africa break the then most noteworthy group aggregate and enroll the finest triumph in an ODI match.
