A look at the over:
Instead of 6 balls, 22 balls were bowled in an over. Lee German scored 70 runs with the bat against Bert Vance. He hit 8 sixes and 6 fours in this over. The most shocking thing is that after 5 balls the umpire got tired and ordered to end the over, the over was completed in just 5 balls i.e. 77 runs were given in just 5 balls.
Ollie Robins also bowled an expensive over:
The record for the second most expensive over in first-class cricket is held by England fast bowler Ollie Robinson. In county cricket, Ollie Robinson conceded 43 runs during the Sussex vs Leicestershire match.
