DUBAI: On Sunday in Dubai, India and Pakistan square off in a thrilling Champions Trophy group encounter.
Five contentious on-field exchanges between the bitter rivals in one-day cricket are examined by AFP Sport.
The kangaroo jump of Miandad
With his batting or sledging, Pakistan’s Javed Miandad never failed to disturb his opponents, and a 1992 World Cup match against India was no exception.
During Pakistan’s chase in Sydney, Miandad appeared to have been annoyed by Indian wicketkeeper Kiran More’s overzealous appeals.
Before taking guard on a delivery, the hitter spoke with More, who was always talking behind the stumps.
Miandad later tried to mimic the glovesman’s calls by jumping like a kangaroo after finishing a cheeky run.
