Liverpool skipper Gerrardwarns his team mates not to under-estimate Watford in the return leg of their Carling Cup semi-final.
 

ICC World Cup, 1999
 
 
 
 
Australia claimed the World Cup for the second time when they outsmarted Pakistan by eight wickets in a lop-sided summit clash.

Opting to bat after winning the toss, Pakistan batsmen failed to justify thr move of skipper Wasim Akram as they fell like ninepins to be shot out for a paltry 132. Ejaz Ahmed was the only batsmen to reach the twenties scoring 22.

Star leg-spinner Shane Warne cast a web around the Pakistani batsmen snapping up 4 for 33.

Needing just 133 for victory, Australian opening duo of Mark Waugh and Adam Gilchrist were in a hurry to finish off the game as they rattled up 75 for the opening wicket. Gilchrist as usual took the Pakistan bowlers in a big way as he bludgeoned a whirlwind 54 off only 36 balls before he fell. Mark Waugh stayed till the end scoring a unbeaten 37 to script an impressive victory for Australia in just 20.1 overs. Shane Warne was named Man of the Match.
