Viv 76 vs smith 19

on quality, probably about equal but the way Viv influenced the next generation and line of English bats is hard to overlook.

 

[Johan]

if Smith ends up playing until the 2027 Ashes/2027 BGT, which I think he will as he clearly has nothing better to do, I feel like he'd become this generation's Viv.

On This Day in 1984

Sir Issac Vivian Alexander Richards played arguably the greatest one day innings of all time

189 off 170 balls - 21 fours & 5 sixes



1. The WestIndies top order did not have a single double digit score.
Greenidge : 9
Haynes : 1
Richardson : 6
Gomes : 4
Lloyd : 8
Dujon : 0
Marshall : 4

2. By the time, Marshall was dismissed the score was 102-7 and Viv’s contribution alone was 65 runs.

3. Viv found a partner in Eldine Baptiste, a 59-run stand ensured. A flicker of hope. Soon Baptiste & Garner fell quickly. 166/9. Viv on 96.

4. Michael Holding joined Viv. The King had now decided to stamp his authority on the game and showed the world why he is the best ever

5. Viv went from 96 to 189* in just 60-odd balls. A still world record 106-run last-wicket stand — Holding made 12. Viv scored 93 of those.

Final scorecard?
Viv : 189*(a new world record beating Kapil’s 175)
Rest of West Indies: 83 (including extras)

His average is coming down. He would have to score runs in 27 bgt and ashes but if he doesnt he would be below viv imo

Still higher than Viv’s was for the last 8 years of his career.
