1996 World Cup Final: Sri Lanka stun Aussies (extended highlights)

Extended highlights of the 1996 World Cup Final: Sri Lanka demonstrated before the final that they could chase down totals previously thought beyond reach and they exploited the fielding restrictions at the start of the innings by attacking from the first ball.

Aravinda da Silva, Sri Lanka's most accomplished batsman, scored a brilliant unbeaten century in the seven-wicket upset win over Australia in the final in Lahore.
