1992 World Cup Semi Final: England v SA

The infamous semifinal of the 1992 World Cup where South Africa were robbed after a rain delay. 

South Africa, allowed into their first World Cup in the run-up to the end of apartheid, were on target for a win versus England when rain stopped play.

The Proteas required just 22 off 13 balls for victory.

After a 10 minutes delay for rain, the SCG scoreboard showed they needed an impossible 22 off one ball under the rules governing rain-affected matches at the time.

England went through to the final against Pakistan.

March 1992.
