5 of the most unwanted individual ODI records

#5 Mohammad Sami, Pakistan - Longest over in an ODI match

Sami bowled a 17-ball over which the longest over in cricket history

The unfortunate bowler who bowled the longest over in One Day International cricket was Pakistan's Mohammad Sami, with the third over of the match against Bangladesh in Asia Cup in Colombo in 2004.

He bowled four no-balls and seven wides in that over. The sequence of the over was: wd-4-2-nb-wd-nb1-0-wd-wd-0-wd-nb-wd-wd-nb-0-4. Ironically, Mohammad Sami's earlier over had been a wicket maiden, so he had the bizarre bowling figure of 2-1-22-1.

The team management defended Sami by explaining that he was attempting to remodel his bowling action and was struggling to find rhythm.

The longest over in a Test is believed to be one of 15 deliveries - including nine no-balls - by Curtly Ambrose for West Indies against Australia at Perth in 1996-97. So, Sami holds the record of longest over in the cricketing history.
