Best oneday innings ever u see

Originally posted by ANIL KUMBLE How was that innings better then Brian Lara's <FONT size=7>169!

Simple facts that
1. They were chasing 333 (at that time a mammoth total)
2. 5 down when he came to bat
3. Sheer will and commitment by a plyer not even as close as gifted as Lara
4. What that innings did to maind set of Sri Lankan Cricketers and public

Lara's 400 .this guy is jus amazin

 

I think it was Kapil Dev's 175. Zimbabwe was a good team that time. Better than now. the score was 44/7 and he took it too 266/9.

I.V.A Richards 189 is also a really amazingly amazing one.

HH Gibbs's 175 at the Wanderers was very good.

S Jayasuriya's 189 was one of the best.

Inzamam's 100 two years ago against India. The ODI series before Sehwag's and Dravid 309 and 270 respectbly. ery fine knock though they lost.

Overall I would say I was Kapil Dev's because if India lost that match they would have been out of the World Cup, instead that match gave us confidence and we ended up winning the World Cup. Viv Richards was equally good. Both are the best I would say.

good point

The best I have seenis Hashan Tillekaratne's 100 off 100 balls in Sharjah aginst WI. WI scores 333, with Lara scoring 169. With score 103 for 5 Hashan leashed out an astonishing attack on West Indies fielders by the way of his running between wickets. He wouls have easily beaten Bevan, de Villiers or Jonty for that matter on that day. He was electric on the pitch. SL lost by 4 runs, but it was a memorable match, and that stated SL's up rise to the world cup in 1996

I think even sachins ton on the next day of his fathers death was wonderful.He scored a match winning ton even after his fathers death

It was quite a game - Surrey made 438 for 5 and Glamorgan gave them the fright of their life making 429

Wooh, go Ali Brown.

I wonder how long it'll be until someone does

Thats was an amazing knock really and the match was very exciting

Originally posted by Clobber I V A Richards 189* v England at Old Trafford - not just for the runs but the match situation. He came in at 11 for 2 and watched the Windies subside to 102 for 7, then 166 for 9 but somehow propelled them to 272 for 9 at the close.

Thats an incredible knock, one question though. Has anyone ever scored a double hundred in an ODI

i am going to have to say Gibbs 175, as this is one of the only big innings ive seen live, followed by pontings in the same match, but you cant take anything from smith either!

i would also rate kluseners in the semi final of 99 world cup, as sa could have lost that match without his innings!
