Pakistan made a slow and shaky start as they lost their openers early. Razzaq tried to stabilize the innings but was dismissed in the 20th over as Pakistan were 68 off 3. Later, as Warne came to bowl this proved to be the turning point of the match as Pakistan lost wickets at regular intervals and the middle order collapsed completely as Ijaz Ahmed, Inzamam, Moin Khan and others got out cheaply and eventually they got bowled out at 132 runs, thanks to a fine bowling display by Shane Warne, Glenn McGrath, Tom Moody and others. In response, Australia made a quick start to the chase as Adam Gilchrist made a quick 54 runs off 36 balls. As Australia were 112 off 2, Mark Waugh and Lehmann stabilized the innings and in the end, the winning boundary by Lehmann ensured victory to Australia as they won the match after 20.1 overs, losing just two wickets. Shane Warne was later awarded with the man of the match award for taking four crucial wickets and Australia lifted their second World Cup after 1987.18 April 2024 1999 World Cup final, Australia v Pakistan – Almanack report https://www.wisden.com/wisden-cricketers-almanack/1999-world-cup-final-australia-v-pakistan-almanack-report Wisden AUS vs PAK Cricket Scorecard, Final at London, June 20, 1999 https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/icc-world-cup-1999-61046/australia-vs-pakistan-final-65234/full-scorecard ESPN Cricinfo 20 June 1999 PAK 132 (39 overs) 133/2 (20.1 overs) AUS Ijaz Ahmed 22 (46) Shane Warne 4/33 (9 overs) Adam Gilchrist 54 (36) Saqlain Mushtaq 1/21 (4.1 overs) Australia win by 8 wickets Scorecard Lord's, London Attendance: 30,040 Steve Bucknor (WI) and David Shepherd (Eng) Shane Warne (Aus) Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat.
