5 bowlers who conceded most runs in a Test innings without picking up a wicket

1. Khan Mohammad (Pakistan) 0/259 v West Indies

This match will forever be rememberd for Sir Garry’s 365

This particular Test match will be remembered for Garry Sobers’ historic 365 but Pakistan’s Khan Mohammad holds a dubious distinction too, courtesy a marathon spell that saw Mohammad toiling for 54 overs resulting in figures of 0/259.

His partner Fazal Mahmood ( 2/247) also struggled to beat the bat but Mohammad’s name tops the list out of all. Pakistan failed to overhaul West Indies’ total of 790 and ended up handing an innings defeat that saw coming after a fairytale display of batting by the West Indian batsmen.

West Indian opener CC Hunte also scored 260 but Sober’s heroics overshadowed the latter’s innings. Mohammad, who made his debut against India in the year 1952, represented Pakistan in 13 Test matches, picking up 54 wickets at an average of 23.92.
