Relive a piece of cricketing history from December 17, 1981, when Rick Darling played his finest innings in One Day International cricket. In the 6th ODI at Sydney, the stylish Australian opener stood tall against Pakistan’s strong bowling attack.

Darling crafted a magnificent 74 runs off 100 balls in 124 minutes, hitting 6 elegant fours. While wickets kept tumbling at the other end, he anchored the innings with patience and class. Unfortunately, his knock ended in a run-out mix-up with Wellham, but not before he lifted Australia to a total of 222 runs.

This was Rick Darling’s highest score in ODI cricket, a shining moment in his short but memorable career. Pakistan eventually chased the target down to win by six wickets, but Darling’s innings remains a nostalgic reminder of the vintage 80s era of cricket.

👉 Watch and cherish Rick Darling’s superb knock — a rare gem from Australia vs Pakistan cricket history.
