Virender Sehwag
The obvious temptation following Virender Sehwag startling 219 against West Indies at Indore is to install him as the best one-day batsman since the format emerged 41 years ago. There have apparently been 3223 one day international matches since that first hastily arranged match between Australia and England at Melbourne in 1970 to 71, and there have been numerous memorable batting blitzes along the way. One which still seems to stand out beyond the rest was Vivian Richards’s 189 not out for West Indies against England at Old Trafford on May 31, 1984.
It was an astonishing display of batting brutality, rescuing the tourists, who were batting first, from a desperate situation of 102 for seven. Bob Willis, Ian Botham, Neil Foster, Geoff Miller and Derek Pringle were belted all over Manchester, with the West Indies tailenders supporting the murderous master man Richards. He was 96 when last man Holding loped to the crease.
