All of them proved to be match-winning for their respective sides in the world cup.

6. Rohan Kanhai & Clive Lloyd 149 vs Australia

In the all-important final match against Australia, the Caribbean side was tattering at the loss of 3 wickets for just 50 runs. The Aussie fast bowlers were in full flow till the West Indies skipper arrived on the crease. Clive Lloyd joined another batting great Rohan Kanhai in the middle order. The two batted with a mix of caution and aggression, creating a 4th wicket partnership of 149 runs.

This great partnership changed the course of the match as it allowed the West Indies to get back and then post a challenging total of 291 runs on the board. While Lloyd was at his attacking best scoring 102 runs of just 85 deliveries, Kanhai played a cool sheet anchor’s role scoring 55 watchful runs of 105 balls.
