* Desmond Haynes showed no appreciation for the generosity of Pakistan captain Imran Khan as he plundered an unbeaten 142 in a record West Indies total of 315 for four which earned them victory by 50 runs in the third One-day international.
* Haynes was 85 when he was given out leg before to left-arm fast bowler Saleem Jaffar by umpire Mohammed Hosein, a schoolteacher standing in his first international.
* As he reluctantly walked out, Haynes protested to Imran Khan he had hit the ball, Imran withdrew his appeal and ushered him back to the wicket.
