Greatest knock in each of the ODI World Cups

[ImpatientLime]

Maxwell and Kapil played arguably the greatest knocks ever so those are locked in. 96, 03, 07 are all also fairly obvious.

2019 if we’re not trolling then it’s Stokes. Otherwise maybe Roy or Jadeja from the semi finals.

i was gonna say roy in the semi final.

chasing 240 odd against australia in a semi should be very tricky, but he just changed the psychology of the game on his own by taking starc to the cleaners.

he was victim of a tief out too by dharmasena

Double century from #7 is so statistically unlikely that the other things don't really matter

With 200 needed and 3 wickets in the tank. Despite the teams in question this must have been a less than 1% chance of history.

What if the captain reverses the batting order?

Agree with most but Gambhir. Both Dhoni and Jayawardene were better in the same match. He threw his wicket away at a crucial time. Wanker.

My choice would be KOB vs England. That was an epic knock in an epic win, one of the Greatest WC Group league upsets ever.

Sorry but Dhoni had a better knock in the WC final 2011

2011 has to be Taylor v Pakistan. After 46 overs NZ were on 210/6. They finished on 302/7
