Until Ritchie change the batting order ...
Then came a bizarre incident. In the 27th over, a full-blooded sweep by Richardson off Warne struck the square-leg umpire, BC Cooray, on the side of the head. What could have been a boundary ended up being two. The two runs inadvertently "saved" by Cooray were recalled when Australia won by five runs, though, at the time, Bishop says, the incident barely registered because West Indies were cruising at 99 for 2.
It all appeared a formality in the 42nd over with West Indies at 165 for 2. But then Chanderpaul was caught at mid-on trying to heave over the infield. Bishop remembers the first signs of twitchiness in the dressing room were felt when the batting order was mysteriously shuffled, with Roger Harper and Ottis Gibson promoted over Jimmy Adams and Keith Arthurton

Damn liar that Christian Bishop-he knows what happened ... come in onionman
Richardson watched it unravel from the non-striker's end. Roger Harper shuffled too far across to Glenn McGrath, Arthurton's favoured midwicket slog found the edge, Adams was trapped lbw on the sweep, and Gibson was caught behind trying to cut Warne. At 187 for 7, the tide had turned Australia's way and they were now throwing themselves at everything. A sweetly timed drive by Bishop sped towards the cover boundary but Ricky Ponting's valiant dive saved Australia a run. Bishop then had no answer to a Warne flipper and he walked back for 3, leaving West Indies eight down with 14 to get.
Richardson held the fort at one end, smashing boundaries to the leg side to help his side inch ahead, but the attrition rate at the other reduced his farewell tournament to a nightmare. With ten needed off the final over, bowled by Damien Fleming, Richardson fetched a boundary off the first ball but chose to pinch a single off the second, resulting in Ambrose being run-out.
When dotties rule ....

Boy serious eh. Wasnt around for it but Ive watched that semi final every time the CWC has come around and theyve rebroadcasted it. Boy dat was as bad as animus SA choke. We should never have lost to any other team in that tournament after beating South Africa because they were the misters in that World Cup. Beating every team to a pulp and we beat them. Should have gone on to win the world cup
