Chasing 214 in the 1999 ODI World Cup semi-final, South Africa needed just 1 run from the final 4 balls with one wicket in hand. But a mix-up between Lance Klusener and Allan Donald ended in a dramatic run-out, leaving the scores tied at 213-213.

Australia advanced to the final by virtue of finishing higher in the Super Six standings, while South Africa's dream of a maiden World Cup title ended in agonising fashion.
