IVA Richards (West Indies): 189* vs England in Manchester on May 31, 1984 - This is easily one of the greatest ODI innings of all time. Sir Viv walked in with the score at 11 for 2 and then watched from the other end as West Indies collapsed to 166 for 9. He then decided to impose himself on the English attack and did so in style as Richards and Michael Holding (12*) put on an unbroken 106-run partnership for the last wicket. Richards hit 21 boundaries and 5 sixes in his memorable knock to help West Indies score 272 for 9 in 55 overs. His assault must have broken the England team's spirit for they hardly put up a fight and were bundled out for 168 with Richards taking 2-45 in his 11 overs.
