New Delhi: England pacer Ollie Robinson conceded the second highest runs in an over in the history of First-Class cricket on Wednesday.
The right-armer conceded 43 runs in six balls during an English County Championship match between Sussex and Leicestershire.
His horror over included five sixes and three fours as it involved three no-balls, each of which were lifted for sixes by Louis Kimber.
The 43-run haul is believed to be a record for English First-Class cricket and most expensive in English County Championship.
Kimber smashed two sixes and six fours and took a single to complete the over, racing from 72 to 109 at the 1st Central County Ground in Hove.
It is the most runs scored by a batter in an over of English first-class cricket, passing the 38 off Alex Tudor for Surrey in 1998.
