OnThisDay in 1981 NZ v AUS

It was the third match in the best-of-five final of the Benson & Hedges World Series Cup. New Zealand had won the first, Australia the second, so whoever won would take a 2-1 advantage into the fourth game, at the SCG.

There was such a controversy in 1981, after which you might not want to watch cricket. The match was underway between Australia and New Zealand and New Zealand needed 6 runs to tie the match off the last ball to win. Australia's captain was Greg Chappell, this is the same Greg Chappell who after becoming the coach of the Indian team had divided the entire team. And the bowling was being done by Greg Chappell's brother Travel Chappell at that time. Greg Chappell didn't tell his younger brother to bowl like this. This day is remembered for the black day of cricket, the whole world condemned this shameful act.

What do you think can happen in cricket also because cricket is a gentlemen game and with all these antics how do you see our beloved game❓
