Key Insights on All-Round Excellence: Century and 5-Wicket Haul in an ODI
Iconic All-Round Performances by Captains in ODIs
The West Indies’ Viv Richards was the first player to score a century and take a five-wicket haul in the same ODI match.
Richards delivered a captain’s performance with a 119-run knock and a spell of 5 for 41 against New Zealand in the 1987 Dunedin ODI.
Richards’ 5 for 41 in the second innings are the fourth-best bowling figures by a West Indies captain in ODIs. This is his second-best figure as their captain.
UAE’s Rohan Mustafa is the other captain to achieve the double of a century and a five-for in ODIs.
Mustafa’s 109 is UAE’s third-highest score as a captain and the fourth-highest as an opener for the UAE in ODIs.
Rohan has the best bowling figures as the UAE’s skipper, having returned 5 for 25 in the second innings.
