WOW - First ever?

International Captain
I have just checked the current scores in the C&G Trophy (English game)

And this is what I saw, is it a first, 200 runs in a 50 over match?

50 over match - Surrey v Glamorgan

Surrey 438/5 (50 ov) RR - 8.76

AD Brown

Runs - 268
Balls - 160
4's - 30
6's - 12
S/R - 167.50


He was finaly bowled in the final over by Kasprowicz.

The other main scorer in the innings was I.Ward with 91

:O :O :O :O

That's the HIGHEST one-day score I've seen but didn't Gordon Greenidge score a one-day double ton in an English cometition?

Here ya go, dood:

268 AD Brown Surrey v Glamorgan Oval 2002
222* RG Pollock Eastern Province v Border East London 1974/75
206 AI Kallicharran Warwickshire v Oxfordshire Birmingham 1984
203 AD Brown Surrey v Hampshire Guildford 1997
202* A Barrow Natal v South Africa African XI Durban 1975/76
201 VJ Wells Leicestershire v Berkshire Leicester 1996

So Alvin Kallicharran was the first in English Limted over cricket. There's been a few of late! Brown has done it twice!

Yeah, have a look at the reply! The game actually went down to the wire in the end. I tell ya, you know the track was a belter when Robert Croft scored 119 off 69 balls. :D

And you know it's a strange game when Adam Hollioake took 5/77!!!!

Sheesh, wish I could have watched that one!

Saeed Anwar scored 194 (or around that) in a one-day international I think. Does anyone know if someone's gotten closer to 200 in an international???

Nope, that's the highest. Viv Richards scored 189* before that one then 188* by Gary Kirsten and then 170-odd is the next one I believe.

Ganguly's 183 at Taunton in WC 99.

I'm not likely to forget someone accusing me of doing a grievious wrong by digging-up a thread then doing the same thing a few months later.

SD Thomas was hit for 108 runs and had an over to go from his max 10 !! Is that a record too ??

Glamorgan 429 not out !

Surely difficult to beat for a losing side with 50 overs not completely played :p

Coincidentally there's an article on Ali Brown (now officially the "old Kevin Pietersen"! Or at least according to Kevin Mitchell... :D ) in today's Observer which mentions his 268. Link:

Thanks for that BB.

Imagine a player like that hidden from the world and a paper of the eminence of The Times greeting him with the considered view that he was 'a clown' . On the other hand we have Woolmer and his lesser clown with the greatest potential in the world tag.

Without reading that article to compare Pietersen to Brown is ludicrous, the only thing they have in common is their propensity to play the odd exceptionally fast innings.
