The World Test Championship of 1995: The Frank Worrell Trophy
While the first official ICC World Test Championship final took place in 2021, back in the '90s, defeating West Indies in their own backyard was as good as being crowned world champions. And for a solid reason.

1998 was Sachin Tendulkar's year. His heroics in Test cricket aside, his tally of 1,894 ODI runs in a single year, with nine centuries, is a record that still stands tall, despite the current batters enjoying every advantage.
His magnum opus – the Desert Storm innings.

Australia held their fort in the second innings. Justin Langer persevered with his 127(308). The Aussies racked up 306 in 121.4 overs. WI needed 388 runs to win, another miracle from Lara.
It was not to be. McGrath removed Lara for 7. Australia worked their way to a 176-run
