Top ten debut innings in ODIs

Shaun Marsh

8. Stephen Fleming (New Zealand – 90 vs India, Napier, March 1994)

New Zealand v West Indies

Stephen Fleming of New Zealand

The Kiwi left-hander came up with a magnificent innings after coming in when his side was reeling at 60/3 in the face of excellent bowling from Indian pacers Javagal Srinath and Salil Ankola.

He added 144 runs with Shane Thomson, who made 83, and fell ten runs short of a deserving hundred when he was run out. Nevertheless, his innings ensured that New Zealand ended up on the winning side as India collapsed to 212 all out.

Fleming would go on to lead the Black Caps after the 1996 World Cup, and he would achieve much success in that role.
