#7 Wills Trophy, 1991 - Pakistan vs West Indies at Sharjah- West Indies won by one wicket

Richie Richardson was in the form of his life, with back to back centuries against a great Pakistan attack.

In the first match of the Wills Trophy in 1991 in Sharjah, West Indies seamers Curtley Ambrose, Ian Bishop and Patrick Patterson combined to bowl Pakistan out for 215. Rameez Raja and Javed Miandad were the only batsmen who achieved individual scores of forty-plus.

Up against a world-beating bowling lineup of Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Imran Khan, Aaqib Javed and Mushtaq Ahmed; West Indies really struggled to gather any sort of momentum.

Pakistan took wickets at regular intervals, and West Indies only found relief in the form of leg-spinner Mushtaq Ahmed. Captain Richie Richardson anchored the innings, getting to his century, but West Indies still needed 13 runs with only one wicket left.

Richardson decided to face most of the bowling, exposing Patterson to only three deliveries. The captain hit the winning runs off a sharp Wasim Akram to register an unlikely one-wicket victory against one of the world's best ODI attacks.

Bonus ODI #1: Wills Trophy, 1991 - Pakistan vs West Indies at Sharjah - Pakistan Won By One Run

If ever there was a case of justice being delivered soon, it was with this match. In the fourth match of this series and exactly four days later, Pakistan were again batting first. After losing early wickets and Javed Miandad getting injured, Rameez Raja played a defiant inning of 90, well assisted by 77 from captain Imran Khan.

But Curtley Ambrose was too good on that day, with his five-wicket haul restricting Pakistan to 236 for 7 in 50 overs. On yet another hot afternoon in Sharjah, it was again up to captain Richie Richardson to save the day for his country.

This time around, he found some able support from wicket-keeper batsman Jeff Dujon. With both batsmen set, and just 26 runs needed with five-wickets remaining, the match was all for the West Indies to lose.

And that is exactly what happened. Waqar Younis, who was in sensational form, got the priceless wicket of West Indies captain, who had scored 122 out of West Indies' 211 runs at that time.

Jeff Dujon was soon run-out, but number eight Ian Bishop tried turning things around, hitting a six and a four. With two needed off the last ball, Bishop was against reverse-swing master and Pakistan's bowler of the day - Waqar Younis.

Even with the field well spread, Bishop tried smashing a young and quickly striding Waqar Younis, playing all over the line. But the toe-crushing Waqar was spot on, as Bishop cleared his front leg and Waqar rattled his middle stump. Pakistan won the match by one run.
