Sharjah Cricket Stadium enters Guinness book

The stadium will also be hosting Pakistan and Sri Lanka’s One Day International on November 20. Sharjah has played host to many memorable matches in past.

Sachin Tendulkar’s back-to-back hundreds against Australia in 1998 and Javed Miandad’s last ball six against India in 1986 will be two of the most memorable moments for Indian fans at Sharjah. Other memorable moments at this venue include Wasim Akram’s streak of hat-tricks, Mutthiah Muralitharan’s wicket haul. It truly is a great honour to be a part of the Guinness World Record files.—APP
