A world record that stands even after 15 years. Australia had beaten West Indies comprehensively in all the three Tests prior to this and the hosts were facing the prospect of being on the wrong side of a whitewash. But this game had more than its fair share of ups and downs. In fact, both the teams were bowled out for an identical score of 240 in the first innings.
The lanky Windies pacer, Jermaine Lawson stunned the Aussies with a 7-wicket haul. Yet, Steve Waugh and co. set West Indies a mammoth 418 runs to win. It took hundreds from the Guyanese pair of Ramnaresh Sarwan and Shivnarine Chanderpaul to pull off perhaps the unlikeliest and most incredible victories of all time in Test cricket.
This was against an Australian bowling attack featuring Glenn McGrath, Brett Lee and Jason Gillespie!
