#  Gary Sobers's unbeaten knock of 365 runs against Pakistan still remains the highest Test score by a West Indies player at Sabina Park. 

# Harmison's brilliant figures of seven for 12 against England in 2004 is by far the best bowling figures in a Test innings by a Caribbean cricketer at Sabina Park. 

# Overall, Jason Holder holds the record of best bowling figures in a match at this venue. He finished with the figures of 11 for 103 during a Test match against Bangladesh in 2018.
