Sometimes, there are situations in Test cricket where a batsman is left on his own to save the face of his team. Some players have to helplessly see their teammates fall from the other end while as they score runs with ease. The team falters overall, but only one stands tall.

Watching lone fighter bat would make contrasting views crop up in the minds of the viewers. As on one hand, there’s no one who is able to find a foot while on the other hand there one guy who faces the opposition bowlers pretty comfortably.

Here is the list of Top 5 Instances when a batsman scored the highest percentages of the team’s total

5. Gordon Greenidge – 63.51% (West Indies):
