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.

Record-Breaking Individual Scores and Bowling Figures

Viv has the most centuries and five-wicket hauls among this lot, with 11 tons and two five-fors to his name. See where he ranks among West Indies batters for ODI 100s here.
