This was scored by Ken Higgs (63) and John Snow (59 not out) for England against West Indies at The Oval in 1966. For the full Test list, click here. In one-day internationals, the record was broken very recently: in November 2009, against New Zealand in Dubai, Pakistan's Mohammad Aamer (73 not out) and Saeed Ajmal (33) put on 103 for the last wicket after their side had been 101 for 9. That was only the second century stand for the last wicket in ODIs, after Viv Richards and Michael Holding put on 106 without being parted for West Indies against England at Old Trafford in 1984. The previous record by Nos 10 and 11 was also held by Pakistan - 72 by Abdul Razzaq (46 not out) and Waqar Younis (33) against South Africa in Durban in 1997-98.
