#3 Evin Lewis (West Indies) – 148 against Sri Lanka

Evin Lewis plundered 148 only for his side to fail at the final hurdle

In a thriller, Evin Lewis took West Indies close to an improbable victory in a Tri-series ODI against Sri Lanka. Dickwella and Kusal Mendis scored 94 each to propel Sri Lanka to 330 in Bulawayo.

Chasing 331, West Indies started well adding 63 for the opening partnership in just 8 overs. Lewis’ 122-ball-148 was studded with 15 fours and 4 sixes and by the time he was run-out, West Indies were within touching distance, requiring 69 runs in 57 balls, very gettable in modern ODI cricket. West Indies eventually fell just a run short of the Sri Lankan score.
