Top 5 six-wicket hauls in ODIs that ended in defeat

#2 Shane Bond (NZ), 6/23 vs Australia at Port Elizabeth - 2003

The Aussies mighty batting power had no answers for Shane Bond's lethal performance

In this Super six encounter vs Australia at Port Elizabeth, Shane Bond delivered one of the most memorable spells of the World Cups. His scalps included top 4 of the mighty Aussies batting line up. Matthew Hayden, Adam Gilchrist, Ricky Ponting, and Damien Martyn, all succumbed to the aggression of Bond.

Australia were reduced to 84/7 at one stage. But lack of support for Bond from the other end allowed the Aussies to make a comeback. Michael Bevan added 97 runs with Andy Bichel for the 8th wicket and Australia finished their innings at 208/9.

The Kiwi batsmen could not make sufficient adjustment to this pace friendly pitch and other than Stephen Fleming, none of their batsmen were able to make any valuable contribution to the scorecard. As a result, New Zealand lost the match by 96 runs. Brett Lee bagged a 'five-for' for Australia.
