The Pakistan v West Indies 1992 World Cup game will always be remembered for Jonty Rhodes running out a hapless Inzamam-ul-Haq. But Andrew Hudson stood out earlier in the day at the Gabba on March 8 when his off-side play mesmerised the Brisbane crowd. Kepler Wessels was the man the crowd wanted to watch as well because Wessels played for Queensland, but the SA skipper was back in the hut early.

Hudson, who peeled two fours in the opening over bowled by Wasim Akram, put his back foot to good use and had the Pakistan bowling attack in sixes and sevens. His driving was clean and the ball cleared the ropes eight times in his innings of 54 which earned him the man of the match award.
