4 mind-boggling cricket facts you probably did not know

England v Australia - 3rd Royal London ODI

Most sixes in a Test innings

Wasim Akram

There is no denying the fact that Sachin Tendulkar was a run-machine at his best. But Sachin's test highest score was always shy of that triple ton that others managed to achieve. Not just that, Sachin's highest score in Test Matches is less than Wasim Akram's scintillating innings of 257 vs Zimbabwe.

Wasim Akram's 257 not out came in Zimbabwe's tour of Pakistan in 1996 where Akram scored an unbeaten 257 from 363 deliveries where he went on to become to record holder for most sixes in a Test innings. A record which still stands tall in his name. He hit 22 boundaries and 12 sixes in that match.
