MARK WAUGH 116

vs South Africa, Port Elizabeth (March, 1997)

After being skittled for just 108 in their first innings, Australia were left needing 270 to win. The tourists were in early trouble at 2-30 when Mark Waugh arrived at the crease. Across 228 deliveries and for almost six hours, Waugh stood tall in what he later described it as his finest innings. The gifted right-hander’s knock helped Australia seal an unlikely victory.
