Steve Waugh's Brutal Knock & Damien Fleming Horror Spell Crushes Zimbabwe | Brad Hogg ODI Debuts

Australia batted first and dominated Zimbabwe on a sluggish Colombo surface. Michael Slater found form with his first ODI fifty since March 1995. Steve Waugh was the star of the innings, smashing a blazing 82 off 70 balls, powering Australia to a commanding total. Brad Hogg, making his international debut in place of Shane Warne, struck immediately, claiming his maiden ODI wicket and showing glimpses of his unorthodox left-arm wrist spin. Zimbabwe’s chase never got going. Only Grant Flower and Guy Whittall showed brief resistance, but it was Mehmood-ul-Hasan Shah, returning to the side after nearly 2 years, who top-scored with 41 (off 30 overs!). Australia won easily by 125 runs, maintaining their dominance in the tri-series. 🎥 This match was a showcase of Australia’s ODI power and the beginning of Brad Hogg’s long career in international cricket. 👍 Like | 💬 Comment | 🔔 Subscribe for more 90s ODI classics! #AustraliaVsZimbabwe #CricketMax #Highlights #WorldSeries
