Do you miss the 90s cricket?

Zimbabwe had their strongest ever team: A Flower, G Flower, Strang brothers, Streak, Whittal, Whishart Campbell, Olanga, Rennie, Brands.

West Indies had their last great team: Lara, Hooper, Richardson, Chanderpaul, Adams, Walsh, Ambrose, Bishop.

Pakistan were a great, great team possibly the best of the 90s, South Africa had a great side, Australia also had an awesome team.

Sri Lanka were a top side: Jayasuriya, Kalu, Gurnisha, De Silva, Ranatunga, Mahanama, Tilly, Murali, Chandana, Wickramsinghe, Dharmasena.

New Zealand also had a good unit: Astle, Fleming, McMillan, Cairns, Doull, Nash, Morrinson, Harris, Parore.

England were ok and India were just India: Tendulkar, Jadeja, Azharuddin, Kumble, Srinath, Prasad, Chaunan, Anolka, Kuruvilla.

Teams were very balanced in the 90s and it was fun watching these odi tournements such as the Sharjah Cup, Wills World Series, Titan Cup, Singer World Series, Singer Akai Nindhas Thropy etc.

Back in those days, even 230 was a competitve score, unlike today were 300 gets chased down easily.

Not the cricket, but the quality of players. The cricket played nowadays is more entertaining, but if only we get one new ball in ODI cricket, then the current era cricket will get even more entertaining.

No, I think most of it was fixed.

The 1999 World Cup is fascinating to review: I hardly believe any of it.
