What was the storm on the right Vong Bangai did not run that day!
Venus Park in St. Kitts, venue Storm is Herschelle Gibbs! South African batsman made history by scoring six sixes in six overs in the one over of leg-spinner Von Banga of the Netherlands. The incident happened today (March 16th).
In the 2007 World Cup, South Africa were bowled out in 40 overs due to rain in A group. But Prunyata lost the wicket of AB de Villiers in the second innings of the innings. Graeme Smith and Jacques Kallis put on 114 for the first wicket.
Gibbs came to the wicket after Smith reached 67 in the 19th over. The right-handed batsman scored 32 runs off 30 balls. Then, in an over, it was scored 36 runs in 36 balls. Six sixes in that over six sixes
It was the 30th over of the innings, Von Bangai fourth. The leg-spinner's first ball came down to the track and hit six sixes over long on Gibbs. The next ball was leg and middle stump, now the ball over the ball off the boundary. Against the long off,
Von Baang gave the fourth ball a bit lower fultus. The result? Over the mid-wicket over six sixes! The fifth ball Gibbs dropped over the long off. And the sixth ball over, over mid-wicket mid-wicket, was sent out of the boundaries by history.
It was one of the first events in the history of cricket, six overs in six overs in one over in international cricket. Gibbs played 7 fours in his 40-ball knock and 7 fours in four fours before being dismissed in the next over. Jacques Kallis scored 109 * and Mark Boucher's 75 * off 31 balls in South Africa's 353 runs in three overs in 40 overs. Proteas won the match with 221 runs.
Fastest double century in Tests
The fastest double century in Test cricket also happened in today's day, in Christchurch in 2002, the New Zealand-England first day of the first Test. New Zealand's Nathan Astle completes double century, only 153! His second century (100 to 200) came in just 39 balls.
Adam Gilchrist made a double century in 212 against South Africa in Johannesburg on 23 February 2002. Australian batsman record a month! Ben Stokes of England went very close to breaking his record in 2016. Against South Africa in Cape Town, the English batsman completed double century 163.
