After a frantic search for coins all I got was the Notts players celebrating. I've watched the replay several times since, and Richie Benaud saying "he's got it awaaay" is a phrase I'll always remember.

I was playing cricket that day, we got finished and rushed to the pub listening to the last over on the radio and when we got into the car park the others all sat in their cars listening to the radio. We took a chance and went into the pub praying they'd got it on the tv there, and they had, getting in there just in time to see the last ball! We took a chance and it paid off, timing is everything.
