England’s Stuart Broad reacts during the 35 overs on the second day of testing with India at Edgbaston.
England’s Stuart Broad set a record for unwelcome test cricket. This is a test against India, allowing a whopping 35 run-offs.
Broad, who bowled to India’s No. 10 Jaspari Bumura early on the second day at Edgbaston, was struck by two 6s (one no ball) and four fours, bowling wide. The last ball.
The previous record for most runs in one over in test cricket was 28, against Robin Peterson of South Africa, George Bailey of Australia (v James Anderson of England), and Keshaf Maharaj of South Africa (Joe Root of England). Shared by South African superstar Brian Lara.
Broad had previously grabbed the 550th wicket in the test, and Indian all-rounder Rabindra Jaeja grew his century in action-packed time.
England’s veteran pace bowler also holds the record for most of the runs recognized in the over at the international Twenty20 cricket, giving India’s Yubradisin 6 sixs in 2007.
India was finally fired at 416 after resuming at 338-7 on the second day.
