1998–99 Pepsi Cup

The 1998–99 Pepsi Cup was a limited-overs cricket tournament held in India, featuring a tri-nation series between India, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. Organized by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), the tournament aimed to enhance cricketing ties among these nations during a politically sensitive period. Running from January 18 to February 1, 1999, the competition comprised a combination of One Day Internationals (ODIs) played in various Indian cities. India emerged as victorious, claiming the title after a thrilling final against Pakistan in New Delhi. The event not only showcased emerging cricket talents but also underscored the intense rivalry and sporting spirit between the participating nations.
