1999 ICC WC
1999 England / Scotland / Ireland / Wales
Steve Waugh at his steeliest had rescued Australia when they faced elimination in their final super six match against South Africa. The two teams had then met in the semi-finals where a tie put Australia into the final against Pakistan.
By now Australia were unstoppable and they ran through a volatile Pakistan side with Shane Warne taking four wickets in a miserably inadequate 132 all out. Australia romped to victory by eight wickets after only 20.1 overs.
Scores: Australia 132 off 39 overs (S.Warne 4-33); Australia 133 for two off 20.1 overs (A.Gilchrist 55). Australia won by eight wickets.
