Pakistan’s Fast Bowlers and the Price of Endless Promise

Pakistan’s fast bowling has always carried the glamour of sudden revelation: a teenager emerging from obscurity, a startling run-up, a ball that appears to change its mind halfway down the pitch. Yet behind this theatre lies a less celebrated occupation. Someone must return after lunch, bowl into the wind, and begin again when the pitch offers nothing. Pakistan remembers its destroyers more readily than the labour that sustained their destruction.

The historical numbers suggest that this labour has changed. Fazal Mahmood delivered 9,834 balls in 34 Tests, approximately 48 overs per appearance. Sarfraz Nawaz averaged just over 42. Imran Khan and Wasim Akram operated nearer 37 and 36 respectively; Waqar Younis averaged about 31. These calculations establish a broad historical contrast, although they cannot explain its causes. An over measures six deliveries; it says little about the circumstances in which those deliveries were extracted. 

Fazal’s extraordinary burden belonged partly to Pakistan’s infancy as a Test nation. At Kingston in 1958, during Garry Sobers’s unbeaten 365, he bowled 85.2 overs in one innings. That figure evokes endurance, but also dependence. When a side possesses few reliable alternatives, its best bowler becomes both spearhead and insurance policy. Admiring the performance should therefore invite another question: how much of yesterday’s heroism was an institution asking one exceptional individual to cover its limitations? 

As Pakistan’s resources expanded, responsibility could be shared. The great partnerships made pace bowling a conversation: pressure at one end creating opportunity at the other. Nevertheless, even the most imposing figures were vulnerable. Imran’s 40 wickets against India in 1982–83 stand among Pakistan’s supreme achievements. The PCB’s biographical account also records the stress fracture that subsequently interrupted his bowling. His career supplies its own warning against treating physical sacrifice as an inexhaustible national resource. 

Nor should fewer overs automatically imply diminished commitment. Waqar’s career strike rate of 43.4 balls per wicket was substantially sharper than Fazal’s 70.7. A bowler who removes batsmen faster can finish his work sooner. Match duration, opposition, supporting attacks and tactical role all influence workload. Comparing generations through overs alone risks penalising efficiency while rewarding circumstances that forced a bowler to remain in the field. The scoreboard records effort imperfectly, even when its arithmetic is exact. 

The contemporary problem extends beyond the boundary of a Test scorecard. International cricket, franchise commitments, practice and travel compete for the same body. Earlier generations also had demanding domestic and county careers, so nostalgia cannot settle which era worked harder. What matters is the arrangement of exertion and recovery. Four overs tonight, a flight tomorrow and another spell shortly afterwards can create demands that a season’s aggregate conceals. Administrators need a calendar of the bowler’s life, rather than isolated tournament totals.

Pakistan’s difficulty is also psychological. In March 2024, Naseem Shah described players’ fear that requesting rest could cost them their places. That admission exposes the weakness of any policy built solely around medical advice. A player who believes honesty threatens his livelihood has an incentive to conceal fatigue. Selection security, clear communication and trust consequently belong inside workload management. Without them, the language of protection can coexist with a dressing room that quietly rewards playing through discomfort. 

There have been attempts to intervene. In July 2024, the PCB denied Shaheen Afridi permission to play in Canada’s Global T20, citing workload concerns; Naseem had also been refused permission for The Hundred. Such decisions demonstrate that protection sometimes requires sacrificing an immediate opportunity. Their value, however, depends on a coherent programme: planned preparation, meaningful recovery and sufficient bowling depth to make rotation practical. A denied permission slip cannot, by itself, constitute a development system. 

Pakistan should measure success by how reliably its fast bowlers return, season after season, with their skills intact. That requires stronger domestic preparation, credible replacements and decisions that outlast the next series. The country has repeatedly discovered men capable of making a cricket ball behave impossibly. Its harder task is giving those men sustainable careers. The next great fast bowler deserves applause for his opening spell, and a system thoughtful enough to preserve his thousandth.

Douglas Jardine: The Ruthless Architect of Bodyline and the Moral Paradox of Victory

Cricket has produced its share of ruthless competitors, but few have occupied such a disturbing intersection of genius, arrogance and controversy as Douglas Robert Jardine. To his admirers, he was an extraordinary strategist, a captain of uncommon intellectual courage who refused to surrender to the romantic conventions of an unforgiving game. To his detractors, he was the embodiment of sporting Machiavellianism—a man who regarded victory not merely as the ultimate objective but as sufficient justification for almost any method of achieving it.

The Bodyline controversy of 1932–33 transformed Jardine from an English cricket captain into a figure of international notoriety. His methods threatened not only the physical safety of Australian batsmen but also the diplomatic relationship between Britain and Australia. Yet reducing Jardine to the villain of Bodyline would obscure the deeper significance of his career. His story is fundamentally about the collision between tactical intelligence and moral restraint, between the pursuit of victory and the unwritten obligations of sport.

The Making of an Uncompromising Mind

Born in Bombay in 1900 to Scottish parents, Jardine was shaped by the austere educational traditions of Winchester and Oxford. These institutions cultivated discipline, emotional restraint, intellectual independence and an almost aristocratic contempt for public approval.

At Winchester, he developed into an accomplished batsman and an uncompromising leader. His cricketing philosophy was already emerging: patience mattered more than spectacle, technical security more than aesthetic pleasure, and winning more than popularity.

His batting reflected this temperament. Classical in technique, exceptionally strong in defence and particularly effective on the leg side, Jardine could withstand pressure that unsettled more flamboyant players. He possessed attacking strokes but frequently suppressed them, preferring to exhaust the bowler's patience rather than entertain spectators.

This was more than a batting preference. It was an expression of character.

Jardine approached cricket as an intellectual contest in which emotion was a weakness to be mastered and opposition a problem to be systematically dismantled. His stubbornness, which would later make him an exceptional strategist, also rendered him singularly incapable of compromise.

Australia: Where Pride Became Antagonism

Jardine's first Australian tour in 1928–29 exposed the cultural tensions that would eventually erupt into the Bodyline crisis.

His slow, methodical batting irritated Australian spectators, while his Oxford Harlequin cap became an emblem of perceived English superiority. The crowds interpreted his aloofness as arrogance and subjected him to persistent ridicule.

Jardine responded not with humour but with cold hostility.

The conflict was psychologically significant. Australian cricket culture celebrated aggression, spontaneity and verbal confrontation. Jardine represented an altogether different tradition: rigid self-control, social reserve and the conviction that authority should never be negotiated with the crowd.

Neither side understood the other, and neither seemed particularly interested in trying.

His 98 in the fourth Test, during a monumental 262-run partnership with Wally Hammond, demonstrated his considerable resilience. But even as he helped England secure a narrow victory, the hostility surrounding him deepened.

By the time he returned as captain four years later, Australia was no longer merely a cricketing opponent. It had become, in his imagination, an adversary to be conquered psychologically as well as technically.

Bradman and the Birth of a Ruthless Strategy

The immediate problem confronting English cricket was Donald Bradman.

During the 1930 Ashes, Bradman accumulated an astonishing 974 runs, exposing the inadequacy of conventional English bowling strategies. His dominance represented a challenge not simply to England's bowlers but to the established understanding of batting itself.

Jardine's response was characteristically analytical.

He studied evidence suggesting that Bradman was less comfortable against fast deliveries rising towards his body, particularly on difficult surfaces. What others regarded as an occasional technical vulnerability, Jardine recognised as the foundation of a comprehensive tactical system.

Working with Harold Larwood and Bill Voce, he developed a strategy built around sustained short-pitched fast bowling directed towards the batsman's body, supported by a densely populated leg-side field.

The intention was simultaneously technical and psychological.

By attacking the body, Jardine sought to restrict scoring opportunities, induce defensive reactions and create catching chances from hurried evasive strokes. More importantly, he wanted to undermine the batsman's freedom of thought.

Bradman's genius depended upon extraordinary control over length, placement and scoring possibilities. Jardine attempted to replace that freedom with uncertainty.

Bodyline was therefore not simply aggressive bowling. It was a calculated attempt to reorganise the psychological relationship between batsman and bowler.

Its intellectual sophistication was undeniable. Its ethical legitimacy was another matter.

Bodyline: When Strategy Became Intimidation

The 1932–33 Ashes exposed the terrifying implications of Jardine's philosophy.

England possessed in Larwood a fast bowler of exceptional speed and accuracy. Under Jardine's direction, his pace became the central instrument of a systematic assault upon Australian batting.

The most explosive moment occurred during the third Test at Adelaide.

Australian captain Bill Woodfull was struck painfully on the chest by a Larwood delivery. As the crowd reacted with horror, Jardine's audible encouragement to his bowler intensified the anger. The subsequent movement of fielders into Bodyline positions transformed an already disturbing incident into a symbolic confrontation.

Later, Bert Oldfield suffered a fractured skull, although the particular delivery responsible was not itself bowled to a Bodyline field.

The atmosphere became poisonous.

Australian spectators saw an English captain apparently indifferent to physical suffering. Jardine, meanwhile, maintained that his tactics remained within the laws of cricket.

Here lay the fundamental contradiction.

For Jardine, legality provided sufficient moral justification. If the rules permitted a method, he believed a captain was entitled to employ it. His opponents argued that cricket possessed obligations extending beyond its written laws.

The distinction was profound.

Sport depends upon rules, but its legitimacy also depends upon mutual recognition that competitors are human beings rather than obstacles to be eliminated.

Jardine understood the first principle with extraordinary clarity. His critics believed he had neglected the second.

A Cricket Series Becomes a Diplomatic Crisis

England eventually won the series 4–1, but the result was overshadowed by an extraordinary diplomatic confrontation.

The Australian Board of Control accused England of employing unsportsmanlike tactics that endangered the interests of cricket. The MCC responded indignantly, and the exchange of official cables threatened the continuation of the tour.

The dispute acquired consequences far beyond the boundary.

Political figures became concerned about the deterioration of Anglo-Australian relations, while the possibility of commercial repercussions added urgency to negotiations.

That a cricketing strategy could endanger relations between two countries illustrated the cultural significance of the Ashes within the British imperial world.

Jardine had achieved what he set out to accomplish: the recovery of the Ashes. Yet the magnitude of the controversy demonstrated that victory could carry costs beyond the scoreboard.

His success was mathematically decisive but morally divisive.

The Paradox of Leadership

To portray Jardine simply as a cruel authoritarian would nevertheless be historically inadequate.

He was an exceptional tactician, meticulous in preparation, imaginative in field placement and remarkably capable of identifying individual weaknesses. His players frequently admired his courage and trusted his judgement, even when they disagreed with his methods.

Harold Larwood remained deeply loyal to him. Others, including the Nawab of Pataudi and Gubby Allen, expressed reservations about Bodyline.

Jardine inspired allegiance without necessarily inspiring affection.

This distinction reveals the complexity of his leadership. He demanded obedience, discipline and personal sacrifice, but he also assumed responsibility for difficult decisions. His authority rested less upon personal warmth than upon the conviction that he knew how to win.

There was, however, a destructive limitation to this certainty.

A captain who regards disagreement as weakness may preserve tactical coherence while sacrificing ethical judgement. Jardine's extraordinary ability to impose his will became inseparable from his inability to recognise when that will required restraint.

His greatest strength and greatest weakness emerged from the same source: an almost absolute certainty in his own reasoning.

The Irony of Facing His Own Creation

History supplied Jardine with an extraordinary moment of poetic justice in 1933, when the West Indies employed similarly hostile short-pitched bowling against England.

Facing Learie Constantine and Manny Martindale, Jardine encountered the very form of intimidation that had made him notorious.

His response was remarkable.

Rather than retreat, he confronted the rising deliveries with immense composure, repeatedly defending against the assault and producing a magnificent 127—his only Test century.

The innings demonstrated that Jardine possessed the physical courage he demanded of others.

It also exposed the limitations of his earlier argument.

His personal ability to withstand hostile bowling did not necessarily justify subjecting every batsman to the same danger. Courage in the face of intimidation and the morality of deliberately employing intimidation are separate questions.

Yet the innings remains essential to understanding him. Jardine was not a coward directing violence from a safe distance. He was prepared to endure the very ordeal he had imposed upon his opponents.

That consistency made him more formidable, though not necessarily more defensible.

The Retreat of a Conqueror

Jardine's final Test assignment came during England's 1933–34 tour of India, the country of his birth.

There he displayed another dimension of his personality, showing greater diplomatic sensitivity and appreciation for local spectators than he had demonstrated in Australia. England won the series 2–0, and Jardine contributed substantially with the bat.

Yet Bodyline continued to cast its shadow.

As cricket's authorities moved to restrict dangerous leg-theory bowling, the political and institutional support that had once protected Jardine weakened.

In March 1934, he announced that he did not intend to play against Australia that summer. His Test career was effectively over.

He departed having played only 22 Tests, scoring 1,296 runs at an average of 48.00—figures that underline how much his controversial captaincy has overshadowed his considerable batting ability.

The man who had conquered Australia would never again confront it in Test cricket.

Genius, Villainy and the Burden of Legacy

Douglas Jardine remains one of cricket's most intellectually fascinating personalities because his achievements resist easy moral classification.

He was neither a conventional villain nor an uncomplicated hero.

His captaincy demonstrated the enormous possibilities of preparation, psychological insight and tactical innovation. He understood that cricket could be won through the manipulation of uncertainty as effectively as through superior physical skill.

But he also demonstrated the dangers of allowing strategic reasoning to become detached from ethical responsibility.

The irony of Jardine's career is that his most successful campaign helped provoke restrictions on the very tactics that had secured his triumph.

His victory altered cricket's understanding of acceptable aggression.

Perhaps the most revealing tribute came from Pelham Warner, who maintained that if England's fate depended upon a single cricket match, he would choose Jardine as captain.

It was an extraordinary endorsement, but one containing an unresolved question: what price would England be prepared to pay for that victory?

Jardine's enduring significance lies precisely in this dilemma.

He belonged to that rare category of sporting figures whose greatness cannot be separated from their capacity to disturb the conscience of the game.

He won the Ashes, but in doing so forced cricket to reconsider what winning ought to mean.

Douglas Jardine did not merely challenge the Australian batsmen. He challenged cricket's moral imagination—and discovered that the laws of a game could permit what its conscience could no longer accept.

Rawalpindi and the Vanishing Comfort of 400

There was a time when 400 looked like a monument in one-day cricket: something to admire, scarcely something to chase. In Rawalpindi, Sri Lanka treated it as unfinished business. Their pursuit of 430 against England, completed with one ball remaining, offered another reminder that modern batting has outgrown many of the assumptions by which we still judge it.

Harry Brook had seemingly written the evening’s definitive story. His 202 included the fastest double century in ODI history, reached in 114 deliveries. Yet England’s captain discovered the peculiar cruelty of this format: an innings can enter the record books without carrying its team across the line. Individual greatness cannot insure collective victory.

What distinguished Brook’s performance was its architecture. After a measured beginning, he expanded his range until the field appeared incapable of containing his imagination. His movement across the crease unsettled bowling plans; ramps and scoops made conventional protection unreliable. This was modern batting at its most sophisticated, where power mattered, but anticipation and manipulation mattered just as much.

Sri Lanka’s reply required a different kind of excellence. At 24 for two, the temptation was to become respectable losers. Instead, Pavan Rathnayake and Avishka Fernando rebuilt through aggression, refusing to let early damage dictate the remaining innings. Rathnayake’s 130, Fernando’s 97 and Dasun Shanaka’s ferocious 97 transformed an improbable assignment into a contest of nerve.

Their greatest achievement was psychological. Huge targets once imposed their own authority: the scoreboard intimidated before the bowlers needed to. Sri Lanka declined that submission. They divided the mountain into partnerships, overs and hittable deliveries. T20 cricket’s influence was visible here, particularly in the conviction that demanding rates can remain manageable when boundaries are available and wickets retain attacking value.

Dew undoubtedly influenced the conditions. A slippery ball complicates execution, while a surface offering little assistance narrows a bowler’s options. But conditions do not manufacture composure. They cannot explain away Sri Lanka’s recovery, nor Janith Liyanage’s nerve after consecutive wickets threatened to overturn the chase. His winning six gave the evening its final, irresistible punctuation.

England’s defeat also invites a harder discussion about bowling. Batting depth attracts selectors because its benefits are immediately visible. Bowling depth becomes conspicuous when the weaker overs arrive. On unforgiving pitches, a captain needs credible alternatives and bowlers capable of taking wickets. Merely hoping to survive ten more overs can surrender the initiative long before the closing assault.

Still, declaring every enormous total unsafe would mistake an extraordinary match for a universal rule. Scores acquire meaning through conditions, boundaries, resources and opposition. The deeper change is that 400 no longer settles the argument. Teams must defend it with the same intelligence and ambition that produced it. Runs provide an advantage; they cannot substitute for bowling.

There was something wonderfully familiar, too, about this drama unfolding in a triangular tournament. Amid the crowded calendar of franchise leagues, the format recalled an older pleasure: international sides meeting repeatedly, carrying defeats forward and allowing a tournament’s tensions to accumulate. Rawalpindi suggested that this neglected structure still possesses considerable emotional force.

Yet ODI cricket should resist confusing endless boundaries with enduring health. Spectacle needs resistance; batting brilliance becomes richer when bowlers have weapons of their own. Sri Lanka supplied the courage and England supplied the warning. Together, they produced an unforgettable evening, while leaving the format with an uncomfortable question: how far can scoring rise before abundance begins to diminish the value of a run?

Marco Jansen: The Quiet Art of Becoming Formidable

Dale Steyn’s declaration that Marco Jansen is the best cricketer in the world carries the exuberance of one fast bowler recognising something extraordinary in another. Such judgements invite argument. Jansen’s growing importance to South Africa, however, is becoming harder to dispute.

At St George’s Park, his contribution reached into every department: 85 from 100 balls, five wickets for 33, and a catch that broke Australia’s largest partnership of the second innings. Together, those interventions illustrated the particular value of an emerging all-rounder: the ability to alter a match whenever it threatens to escape.

Yet the most revealing part of Jansen’s performance was his explanation of resilience. South African cricket has often celebrated recovery from the brink. Jansen offered a more demanding interpretation. Resilience could also mean making sound decisions repeatedly, maintaining discipline before desperation makes it compulsory.

That distinction captures much of his development. His talent has long been visible. He is learning how to make it dependable.

South Africa had arrived in Gqeberha carrying the bruises of a 214-run defeat in Durban. At 110 for six, another collapse seemed close. Jansen’s partnership with Temba Bavuma changed the direction of the innings because their contrasting methods served the same purpose. Bavuma supplied restraint; Jansen gave the scoreboard movement.

His aggression contained judgement. An early edge fell short of the slips because he played with soft hands. There were fortunate escapes, as he readily acknowledged, but fortune alone cannot explain an innings that combined scoring intent with an awareness of danger.

His childhood offers a clue to that batting confidence. Before height made fast bowling his obvious calling, Jansen opened the batting. At nine, he scored an unbeaten 164 in a Twenty20 match. The hands that now rescue South Africa’s lower order were learning their trade long before his bowling became internationally recognisable.

His father, Koos, recognised the possibilities in Marco and his twin brother, Duan, and committed himself to their development. His methods could be exacting. Expectations were high, criticism direct. Jansen remembers affection alongside the severity, but their progress remained far from inevitable. Neither brother followed the celebrated route through an Under-19 World Cup.

When Marco made his Test debut against India in December 2021, opportunity had arrived sooner than he could quite believe. His opening spell betrayed his nerves. His subsequent wickets revealed how quickly he could recover his footing.

That capacity matters because his physical presence can obscure his temperament. A man standing more than two metres tall, delivering the ball at formidable pace, appears built for intimidation. Jansen has spoken instead about anxiety, self-doubt and the need for reassurance.

The difficult encounters with India at the 2023 ODI World Cup and the 2024 T20 World Cup final exposed that vulnerability. An extended break later offered space to recover physically and mentally. His description of returning refreshed suggested something practical: greater concentration, sustained for longer.

The results were devastating at Kingsmead in November 2024. His seven for 13 dismantled Sri Lanka for 42, an exhibition of bounce and movement made more threatening by precision.

Height alone did not produce those wickets. Jansen found lengths that complicated the batter’s judgement, drawing uncertain responses between defence and withdrawal. The menace lay in how small the necessary movement could be. A slight deviation was enough to find an edge or pass through a gap.

His height nevertheless presents a technical dilemma. Deliveries that would threaten the stumps from a shorter bowler can climb harmlessly over them from his release point. He must continually negotiate the relationship between bounce and length.

In Guwahati in 2025, he turned that problem into a weapon. His short deliveries could pitch closer to the batter and still rise awkwardly. Once the method brought a breakthrough, South Africa persisted, and Jansen finished with six for 48.

His accompanying 93 demonstrated another dimension of his usefulness. On a tour without Kagiso Rabada, he helped supply both the runs and the penetration that South Africa required. He admitted to being nervous throughout the innings. Composure, in his case, increasingly means performing while the nerves remain.

Rabada’s return in Gqeberha changed the distribution of responsibility again. With pressure building from the opposite end, Jansen found a fuller, searching length. His effectiveness came through adaptation: understanding what the surface, the partnership and the match required.

That is what makes Steyn’s praise compelling, even if the superlative remains debatable. Jansen can now influence the architecture of a Test through several different skills. He can repair an innings, break a partnership and create opportunities for others.

He still speaks readily of luck, helpful conditions and excellent catches. Beneath that modesty, however, a firmer understanding of his own ability is taking shape.

South Africa have found a cricketer capable of spectacular rescue. Jansen’s next step is the one he has already identified: making good decisions often enough that rescue is needed less frequently. The extraordinary performances attract attention. The accumulating discipline may ultimately define him.

Bangladesh Cricket Must Give Its Ambition a Method

There is something painfully revealing about a cricket team entering a match with a calculator already occupying the imagination. Before Bangladesh faced Afghanistan, victory alone was insufficient: batting first, they needed to win by at least 41 runs to reach the triangular series final. Then came two wickets in consecutive deliveries. The distance between what Bangladesh required and what Bangladesh could immediately deliver became the story.

A qualification equation can make an ordinary fixture compelling. For Bangladesh, however, this predicament invites a larger question: how should a team translate ambition into decisions under pressure? A demanding target requires clarity about the innings ahead. Early wickets make that clarity even more valuable. The temptation is to respond emotionally, either retreating into survival or attempting to recover everything through one spectacular stroke.

Neither response constitutes a strategy. Good batting involves recognising that a match contains several changing contests. A threatening opening spell may demand restraint; an inaccurate replacement bowler may offer acceleration. After successive dismissals, rebuilding should preserve the possibility of a competitive total. The essential skill is judgment: understanding how much risk a particular moment can bear, and having the technique to act on that understanding.

This is why declarations about positive cricket deserve closer examination. Positivity should have an observable meaning. It might involve taking singles against a difficult bowler, defending decisively, or attacking a favourable field. A boundary can express confidence, but so can refusing a reckless shot. When aggression becomes a compulsory appearance, batsmen surrender the freedom to think. Their approach becomes predictable precisely when they believe they are being adventurous.

Supporters also need to distinguish accountability from public punishment. A batsman should answer for repeated errors, and selection must reward performance. Yet humiliation offers little instruction. Calling someone fearless after a successful slog and irresponsible after an unsuccessful one explains nothing about the decision itself. Useful criticism asks whether the shot suited the delivery, field, match situation and player’s strengths. That standard should survive the result.

The same discipline should govern selection. Every selected player ought to understand the job being asked of him and the evidence supporting his inclusion. Continuity becomes valuable when it allows a player to develop within a clear role. Changes become valuable when they address an identified weakness. Both require explanation. Without that reasoning, patience and experimentation can become convenient descriptions for decisions whose purpose remains uncertain.

Domestic cricket belongs at the centre of any proposed solution. If Bangladesh wants batsmen who negotiate movement, rotate against spin and construct substantial innings, its competitions should repeatedly examine those skills. Administrators should assess what different surfaces and match schedules actually teach. Coaches should examine how runs are made, especially against stronger attacks and difficult conditions. An average offers evidence; the circumstances behind it reveal how transferable that evidence might be.

Preparation should also recreate uncomfortable situations. Practise recovering after two early wickets. Practise maintaining momentum without boundaries. Practise identifying which bowler to challenge when the required rate rises. These exercises give ambition practical content. They also provide a fairer basis for evaluating players: coaches can establish whether a weakness has been recognised, worked on and improved, rather than merely discussed after another disappointing afternoon.

There is room for hope in a demanding assessment. Cricketing progress does not require every player to become exceptional. It requires enough players to execute their responsibilities reliably, and a system that helps the next group improve. Bangladesh should therefore measure progress through the quality of decisions as well as victories. Can a partnership absorb pressure? Can an innings change tempo intelligently? Can selection explain itself? Those answers will give supporters something more durable than another promise. The calculator may determine qualification, but preparation determines whether Bangladesh can meaningfully influence what appears on its screen when the decisive match finally arrives.
