#5 Lance Klusener - South Africa vs New Zealand, 1999

Klusener, a man with his own class
Klusener was one of the most successful all-rounders of South Africa

South Africa needed 11 runs off the last over to win the match.

Proteas were chasing 192 in Napier, where the match was reduced to 40 overs. Mark Boucher was sent back to the pavilion by Dion Nash off the second ball of the last over. Lance Klusener was on strike for the final delivery of the game.

South Africa required four runs to win at that stage, and the last ball went for a maximum to give Proteas a famous victory, which came by a margin of two wickets. Klusener gave a sneak peek into what followed in the World Cup a few months later, where he continued his impressive run in international cricket.
