New Delhi. Ollie Robinson, who has dismissed Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma 3 times each and Rishabh Pant 4 times, would have never thought in his life that a day would come when 43 runs would be scored in one of his overs. But it happened and this misfortune was not caused to him by any famous batsman but by Lewis Kimber, who came at number eight. Lewis Kimber scored 43 runs in Robinson’s over in a match of the County Championship. The over also included a no ball.
If anyone would have been the happiest with this beating of Ollie Robinson, then it is Shoaib Bashir. Shoaib Bashir is also an England cricketer. Just a week ago, Shoaib Bashir had conceded 38 runs in an over, which was the record for the most expensive over. This unwanted record of Shoaib Bashir has now been in the name of Ollie Robinson.
Ollie Robinson made this unwanted record in the Sussex vs Leicestershire match. Sussex defeated Leicestershire by 18 runs in this match of County Championship Division 2. Ollie Robinson would hardly want to remember this match despite the victory of his team Sussex.
43 runs is the record for the most runs off an over in County Championship’s 134 year history https://t.co/MMHTRMA9F2
