Mark Waugh's graceful stroke play was a treat to watch

Australia were the most consistent sides in one-day internationals for the most part of the 1990s and in Mark Waugh, they had an opening batsman who could give a rousing start.

Waugh's graceful stroke play, against both pace and spin, made him the world's top opening batsman in the 1990s and during this particular period, he scored 2602 runs at an average of almost 39 in 73 games.

Waugh wasn't only a boundary hitter par excellence, but was also a player who was adept at bringing up a century when he got a start. Hence, it was not a surprise that he brought up 5 centuries in this particular time span. In addition to that, he scored 19 half-centuries, ending as one of Australia's greatest one-day international batsmen.
