Jayasuriya hits most runs ever in a single one-day international over Atul Kahate - 10 April 2001
Sanath Jayasuriya scored 30 runs off the 10th over of Chris Harris on Tuesday to beat his own record for the most number of runs scored in an over in Limited Overs International (LOI) cricket. Jayasuriya's sequence in the over was 666642. He had previously scored 29 runs in an over off Aamer Sohail during his famous knock at Singapore in 1995-96, with a further run coming from a wide to bring the total cost of the over to 30. Therefore Harris equals the record of having bowled the most expensive one-day international over, with all runs coming from the bat this time. The record was nearly beaten two days later when Shahid Afridi hit 26 off five balls after Imran Nzir took a single from the first ball of Bradburn's over. The following table shows the list of batsmen scoring 25 runs or more in an over in LOI cricket with details wherever available.
