So Sanjit asked about the records in this category. Today we'll check out number of balls faced by individuals during a batting pair, and balls faced in a row.

Up and Down

Last week's game was a real up-and-down affair. The opposition, NDC, known for having 2 quality players and 4 not-so-quality players, lived up to their reputation. Their first pair made 82, the team total was 89, including a -23 second pair. This in turn led to Gareth's bowling figures showing overs of 38 and then -7. Did either of these two performances set some kind of inconsistency record? Today, we find out.
