[ редактировать ]The Titan Cup was held after the inaugural series of the Border–Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia. It was a one-Test series held in New Delhi, and was won by India, and served as the commencement of South Africa's tour of India later that season. Having won the Pepsi Sharjah Cup and five out of their six matches in the World Cup that year, South Africa were considered favorites to win the competition. They were also coming on the back of winning a four-nation ODI tournament, the Kenya Centenary Cup, where they defeated a strong Pakistan side in the final, and having lost only one game leading into the final, that to world champions Sri Lanka.[2] Captain Hansie Cronje admitted that his side were "in cracking one-day form" before the Titan Cup commenced.[3] Австралия, занявшая второе место на чемпионате мира, считалась вторым фаворитом. Индия, не выиграв конкурс ODI, ведущий в турнир, видела, как команда капитанство перешло от ветерана Мохаммада Ажаруддина к тогдашнему 23-летнему звездному игроку Сачину Тендулкару .
Before their first game against India, South Africa played a practice game in Gymkhana Ground in Secunderabad dividing themselves into two teams and with members of the Hyderabad, the local first-class team.[4]

The South Africa coaching staff was headed by Bob Woolmer, with Robbie Muzzell accompanying the squad as the manager.[5] The squad arrived in India on 14 October 1996 without their four regular team players: medium pace bowler Craig Matthews, all-rounder Jacques Kallis, all-rounder Shaun Pollock and spinner Paul Adams. Gary Kirsten was named the new vice-captain of the side.[2]
The India team coach was Madan Lal. Karnataka opening batsman Sujith Somasunder made his debut while Tamil Nadu all-rounder Robin Singh made his comeback to the team after 7 years.The squad for their first three games was announced on 13 October 1996.[6] On 23 October, for the remaining three of the group stage games following the loss to South Africa, the Indian selectors brought in Navjot Singh Sidhu in place of Sujith Somasunder.[7]
Results
[edit]South Africa won all their round-robin matches against India and Australia. Australia did not win any of their matches, losing two of their encounters against India.[1] In third match, Anil Kumble along with Javagal Srinath helped India to win their ODI match against Australia in Bangalore. The duo added 52 runs for 9th wicket partnership, after Sachin Tendulkar got out at 88 when India was 164/8, chasing a target of 216 runs.[8][9] The India-Australia match in Cuttack was abandoned due to rain, resulting in both teams getting one point each. In the 9th and last round-robin match, which was a virtual semi-final, India won by 5 runs defending 289, their highest ever total against Australia then. India managed to qualify for the final against South Africa on the strength of their two round-robin victories against Australia.

Going into the match, South Africa had a marginally better record with nine wins against eight losses over India.[13] Electing to bat first upon winning the toss in front of a 35,000-strong crowd, South Africa got off to a fine start after a maiden over by paceman Javagal Srinath.[14] Openers Gary Kirsten and Andrew Hudson then put together a partnership of 74 at 14 overs.[15] Kirsten particularly punished India's spinner Sunil Joshi during his knock of 81, supported well by Daryll Cullinan (16), who added 43 together for the third wicket. A middle-order collapse — three wickets for 21 runs — was followed by a stand of 76 between Cronje and Brian McMillan. Cronje remained unbeaten at 65 at the end helping take his team to 261 for the loss of seven wickets. Anil Kumble was India's best bowler for the innings picking wickets of Kirsten, pinch-hitter Pat Symcox and Derek Crookes.[14]
India began poorly losing debutante Sujith Somasunder and captain Sachin Tendulkar early, before Mohammad Azharuddin and Rahul Dravid put together 67 runs for the third wicket.[15] Dravid was India's best batsman in the game who made a patient 62 before top-edging Crookes while attempting to sweep him. Sourav Ganguly was involved in a mix-up with Dravid while attempting a sharp single off Fanie de Villiers and crashing into him, before McMillan ran him out. Despite being declared out, South Africa captain Cronje recalled Ganguly, only before he lost his wicket to Allan Donald, who also dismissed Ajay Jadeja.[14] The tail fell cheaply and India were all out for 214, short of the opposition's score by 47 runs. Jonty Rhodes stood out for Cronje's team in the field affecting two run outs, while de Villiers' accurate bowling restricted India's scoring. However, Kirsten's innings of 84 won him the man of the match award.[15]
