6 batsmen who scored the most runs in their respective last ODIs    

#4 Clive Radley - 117 not out against New Zealand (1978)

Radley managed to sparkle despite being given limited opportunities at the highest level

One of those rare cases who transcended the levels of batsmanship, Clive Radley was a player with modest returns in the County circuit. However, when he swapped his Middlesex outfit for England's pristine whites, the right-hander found ways to accumulate runs at the highest level. Despite making a mark at the international arena, his career was restricted to just 8 Tests and 4 ODIs.

To add to his two centuries in Tests, Radley scored his maiden ODI ton in 1978 against New Zealand at Manchester. Opting to bat first, England were dented early when Graham Gooch was run out after facing just two deliveries. But Radley anchored the innings splendidly even as contributions from the middle-order helped immensely.

He remained unbeaten on 117 from 140 balls as the hosts registered a daunting total of 278 from their 55 overs. Their spin combination of Phil Edmonds and Geoff Miller proceeded to send New Zealand crashing to 152 all out. England completed a facile series triumph. Meanwhile, for Radley, the match would remain his final appearance in the limited-overs format.
