No player with a reasonable number of innings has an ODI average remotely close to 99, or even above 70.
You have misheard or misremembered the details of such a statement being made about Don Bradman, whose Test average was 99.94.
He required only four runs from his last innings to achieve exactly 100 average, but instead was bowled for a two-ball duck.

I think you've gotten Don Bradman's Test average of 99.94 mixed up. No player has an ODI average near 99. The highest, having played a minimum of 20 innings, belongs to Ryan ten Doeschate of the Netherlands with an average of 67.
