Highest partnerships in ODI

Overview:-

• Chris Gayle and Marlon Samuels (both Jamaica) compiled a record One-Day International (ODI) stand of 372 runs during an ICC World Cup match between the West Indies and Zimbabwe at the Manuka Oval in Canberra, Australia, on 24 February 2015.
• The pair came together when Dwayne Smith was out to the second ball of the West Indies innings, and the 298-ball partnership was broken only when Gayle was dismissed for 215 – the highest individual score at the ICC World Cup – off the final ball of the innings.
• Samuels was undefeated on 133. The previous record ODI stand was 331, between India’s Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid against New Zealand at Lal Bahadur Shastri Stadium, Hyderabad, Deccan, India, on 8 November 1999.
• The previous record stand in an ICC World Cup match was 318, between India’s Rahul Dravid and Sourav Ganguly at the County Ground in Taunton, Somerset, UK, on 26 May 1999.
• The 372-run Gayle-Samuels partnership was not only an ODI record but the highest stand in any List A match (domestic one-day matches below international level).
• The West Indies’ innings total of 372 for 2 was the fifth highest at the ICC World Cup.
