A Test famously remembered for Brian Lara's breathtaking 153 in the fourth innings of the Test to secure a 1 wicket win for the Windies, also saw it's the newest entrant to the 199 club.

Australia buoyed by two crushing wins over the hosts batted first in the third game with the intention to further pile on the agony. Their captain decided to lead from the front as Steve Waugh arrested the top-order slide and formed an invaluable partnership of 281 runs with Ricky Ponting (103).

On the ground where he had scored a double hundred that ended the West Indian era of dominance, Waugh fell excruciatingly short by one run when he was adjudged leg before wicket off Nehemiah Perry.
