England produced their finest batting performance of the tournament. The highlight was a brutal, unforgettable innings from Andrew Flintoff, who smashed 123 off 104 balls, including a record seven sixes — the most by an England batsman in an ODI at that time. Alongside him, Andrew Strauss played a composed knock, scoring his maiden ODI hundred. The pair stitched together a massive 226-run partnership, an all-wicket record for England in ODIs. The final overs were pure carnage — England plundered 121 runs in the last 10 overs, turning the innings into a batting spectacle. But West Indies had their own match-winner. Enter Chris Gayle. Gayle anchored the chase with a magnificent 132, his ninth ODI century. He was well supported by the ever-reliable Ramnaresh Sarwan, as the duo put together a stunning 187-run partnership, the highest for West Indies against England. England had a glimmer of hope when Brian Lara departed with 68 still required. But Gayle shifted gears at the perfect moment, dismantling the bowling attack. A crucial over from Darren Gough went for 16 runs, swinging the momentum firmly in West Indies’ favour. From there, the chase was completed with confidence and control. Despite Flintoff’s extraordinary innings, England’s missed chances in the field proved costly — and Gayle made sure they paid the price. 🔥 Key Highlights: Chris Gayle’s match-winning 132 Flintoff’s explosive 123 (7 sixes) Strauss’ maiden ODI hundred England’s record 226-run partnership Gayle & Sarwan 187-run stand 121 runs scored in last 10 overs by England #engvswi #cricketmax #highlights #thriller #qualifier #cricket #english
