Darren Sammy hit 58* off 24 in the one-dayer against South Africa with 2 fours and 6 sixes. Strike rate 241.66.
He was batting at number nine. West Indies must be wishing they sent him in earlier. They were bowled out for 283 chasing 300 but there were 2 overs left and Sammy was left stranded. He was in the mood to chase off those remaning runs. He came in 2 places below Jerome Taylor - a man with no ODI 50's but nealry 100 ODI wickets. Sammy is an allrounder!
Can anyone think of other substantial innings (50+) by a player where most of the runs came in sixes? 36 out of a total of 58 here. 44 in all boundaries. There are many innings where most of the runs came in boundaries, but maximums I don't know.
I know Yuvi hit 36 in an over once, what was his total that day? And Sir Garry also managed the same feat once.
