Australia vs. West Indies, Eighth match of the Benson & Hedges Series at the MCG in 1988/89.
The West Indies' dominance was continuing unabated during Australia's World Series Cricket in 1988/89. After the first seven matches, the West Indies had played five and won them all, while the other two were between Australia and Pakistan who had both won one each.
The tide finally turned in front of a buzzing MCG crowd. Having set a modest total of 226, Richie Richardson and Jeff Dujon steered the West Indies to 2/113 before a brilliant caught and bowled by Allan Border turned the match and gave Australia a sniff.
This brilliant catch by Steve Waugh saw Roger Harper off and the West Indies had stumbled to 6/189. With the momentum back their way, Australia did enough to hold on and finally get their first ODI win against the West Indies of the summer.
