Perhaps the greatest team of all time and the first in ODI history to be considered invincible was the West Indies team of the 1970s, led by the great Clive Lloyd. While there were a lot lesser number of ODIs played in that era, the West Indies dominated almost every team, thanks to some of the most brutal batsmen and bowlers to have played the game.

Lloyd led his team to 64 victories out of 84 matches as captain, a winning percentage of 77.71%. This amazing run also included the first two World Cups in 1975 and 1979, and it was considered a big surprise when his team was defeated in the 1983 World Cup final by India.
