#4 Gordon Greenidge/Desmond Haynes (West Indies)
The feared West Indian pair loses some points because of its lower average away from home but they more than make up for it with the tons of runs they scored together at home against all sides. It is hard to beat the tally of this dynamic pair, which combined skill and power.
They have 42 fifty-plus partnerships, close to one every three innings. Interestingly, of all the pairs with more than 1000 away runs, Greenidge and Haynes have the lowest average away, which is hard to understand considering how good the pair was against pace as well as against spin. Nevertheless, the pair struck terror in the hearts of bowlers with 4 double-century partnerships. They have at least one century partnership in Australia, England, New Zealand and India.
