In reply, India who were at one stage at 98/1, lost seven wickets for 22 runs to slump to 120/8 in the 35th over, with still 132 runs required to win. At this point, sections of the crowd began rioting because of which the match referee Clive Lloyd decided to abandon the game and awarded the win to Sri Lanka.[76][77] Tendulkar scored 523 runs at an average of 87.16 and was the leading run scorer of the tournament.[78] Leg-spinner Kumble finished as the leading wicket taker in the tournament with 15 wickets at 18.73 apiece.[79]
