Tasmania vs Western Australia: Sheffield Shield Thriller – 3 Run Victory

Tasmania ka Sheffield Shield mein Tareekhi aur Hairan Kun Inqilab (Remarkable Victory)

Cricket ki duniya mein kabhi kabhi aise lamhaat aate hain jo fanon ke dil ki dhadkanein tez kar dete hain. Hobart mein khela gaya Sheffield Shield ka match isi tarah ki ek misaal ban gaya, jahan Tasmania ne Western Australia (WA) ko sirf teen runs se shikast de kar ek tareekhi jeet apne naam ki.

Aakhri Din ka Thrill

Match ka aakhri din behad dilchasp tha. Western Australia ko jeet ke liye 259 runs ka target mila tha aur unhein jeet ke liye sirf 44 runs darkar thay. Jab match shuru hua toh lag raha tha ke mehman team aasani se target hasil kar legi, lekin Tasmania ke bowlers ne kuch aur hi socha tha.

Meredith aur Bird ka Jadoo

Jab Western Australia ki jeet saaf nazar aa rahi thi, tabhi Tasmania ke fast bowlers ne bazi palat di:

• Riley Meredith ne left-hander Joel Curtis ko 50 runs par lbw (Leg Before Wicket) out kiya. Yeh ball neeche rahi aur Curtis ke paas bachne ka koi mauqa nahi tha.
• Jackson Bird ne match ka khatma karte hue aakhri batsman Liam Haskett ko ek shandaar in-swinging yorker par lbw out kiya.

Is tarah Western Australia ki puri team 255 runs par dher ho gayi aur Tasmania ne yeh nail-biting match sirf 3 runs se jeet liya.

Record Book mein Jagah

Yeh jeet Sheffield Shield ki 134 saala tareekh mein runs ke aitbaar se dusri sab se qareebi jeet hai. Tasmania ke liye yeh jeet isliye bhi khaas hai kyunki pichle saal unhein South Australia ke khilaf sirf do runs se shikast ka samna karna pada tha. Is baar qismat Tasmania par meharban rahi.

Match ka Khulasa

Tasmania ne apni dono innings mein 171 aur 259 runs banaye, jabke Western Australia 172 aur 255 runs par simat gayi. Western Australia ke liye Joel Curtis (50) aur Aaron Hardie (61) ne achi koshish ki, lekin Tasmania ke bowlers, khas taur par Gabe Bell (3-79) aur Riley Meredith (3-41), ne unhein target tak nahi pahunchne diya.

Is jeet ke baad Tasmania ka morale buland hai, jabke Western Australia ko season ke shuruati do rounds mein do baar shikast ka samna karna pada hai.
