Best ever all round ODI performance

[Fuller Pilch]

Amelia Kerr 232* and 5/17

What comes close?

 

[kingkallis]

Viv Richards - 119 and 5 wickets vs NZ
Sachin - 141 and 4 wickets vs Aus

 

[sledger]

Nothing Tendulkar ever did, that's for sure.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Dwayne Leverock's 10 overs for 96 runs. And that catch of Robin Uthappa

 

[Bolo]

Afridi. 76 from 55 and 7/12

 

[Engle]

Aravinda's unbeaten century, 3 wkts, 2 catches in WC final '96

 

[ankitj]

Viv Richards - 119 and 5 wickets vs NZ
Sachin - 141 and 4 wickets vs Aus

Yes, this came to my mind too: 3rd QF (D/N), Wills International Cup at Dhaka, Oct 28 1998 | Match Summary | ESPNCricinfo

 

[CricAddict]

In that great rescue act of Stoinis, didn't he take few wickets too?

 

[cpr]

I'll save Kennedy the hassle of mentioning Collingwoods 112* and 6/31

 

[Shri]

Great talent. First saw her bowl as a 15 year old on a reddit video. Hope she does even greater things in the days to come.

 

[akilana]

Aravinda's unbeaten century, 3 wkts, 2 catches in WC final '96

Hard to top this one.

 

[karan316]

175, 1-32 and a catch. I don't need to say anything about his batting, India had lost 7 wickets for 78 before Kapil lifted the score to 266. Also, he was the most economical bowler of the match.

Without this performance, cricket wouldn't have got as popular as it is right now in India and BCCI wouldn't have made ICC their bee-yatch. The sheer amount of impact this performance had on Indian cricket puts it on top of the list IMO.

[Engle]

Gary Gilmours 6/14 and top-score of 28* in the semi-final of WC 1975 vs England deserves a mention (maybe more)

I think we can just change the title of this thread to

'50+ and 5 wickets in a game'

That match wasn't particularly crucial - if India had lost it, they would still have reached the semis with a win against Australia (which I think they needed anyway, because of run rates), so the only effect it could have had on the tournament would have been if it had shattered India's confidence.

Also, weren't India hosting 6-match Test series with record-breaking crowds *before* that World Cup?

 

[TheBrand]

Stoinis 146* and 3/17 against New Zealand. One of the greatest performances I've ever seen.

Nah, as highlighted above some ATG All round performances won't meet that criteria

Andy Bichel in the 2003 WC vs England - 7/20 and 34* chasing 205

37th Match, ICC World Cup at Port Elizabeth, Mar 2 2003 | Match Summary | ESPNCricinfo

 

[TheJediBrah]

Ooh yes Andy Bichel a great shout. That 34* was huge in the context of a low scoring game. The 7/20 was ****ing weird too. Sure he bowled well, but on another day you'd get 3/40.

What was Bevean doing, waiting for Bichel to get out?

 

[TheJediBrah]

What was Bevean doing, waiting for Bichel to get out?

Doing what he always did. Exactly what was necessary to win the game. If Bichel was scoring a bit slower, Bevan would have just scored a few more.

A better question is what was Lee doing batting ahead of Bichel.
