Pakistani batsman against West Indies. He was earlier at level with
Aamir Sohail, Hanif Mohammad, Wazir Mohammad, Mushtaq Mohammad, Wasim
Raja, Majid Khan and Javed Miandad with two hundreds.The hundred was second for Inzamam on West Indian soil. His other
hundred came at St.John?s in 1992-93 when he made 123. Inzamam became
only third Pakistani after Hanif Mohammad and Javed Miandad to have
scored two hundreds on West Indian soil. Incidentally India?s Sunil
Gavaskar holds the record of scoring most hundreds on West Indian soil
with 7 hundreds in 13 matches.The sixth wicket partnership of 206 runs between Inzamam-ul- Haq

Ken Wadsworth for New Zealand at Kingston in 1971-72 and 206 run stand
between Keith Miller and RG Archer also at Kingston in 1954-55.The partnership was the third highest for Pakistan for sixth

and Imran Khan at Faisalabad in 1982-83.Courtney Walsh became leading wicket taker for West Indies against
