Ball of the Century.

I'm not very much of a cricket person, but there's only so far away you can run from it in India and I enjoy a good story as much as the next person, and cricket, no one can dispute, has some classic tales - of the underdog, the heroes, the rivalries, the last-man-standing, the one where he hit a six off the last ball, where they won from follow-on, the one where he walked and the one where he didn't, the one where he dropped the world cup, and the one about which they say, "never, perhaps, has one delivery cast so long a shadow over a game or a series." The one about the ball of the century.

Which went like this.

So what if I hadn't heard of it until I came across the song.
