Who holds the worst record in cricket which is unbeaten till now?

 Robin Peterson, South Africa - Most expensive over by a Full-Member bowler

Robin Peterson holds the infamous record of most runs conceded by a Full-Member nation player in one over in One Day International history. Sri Lanka's Thisera Perera hit South Africa's left-arm-spinner for 5 sixes and a four in a match between Sri Lanka and South Africa in 2013 at Pallekele.

Peterson conceded runs in this sequence in the 33rd over: 6, Wd, 6, 6, 6, 4, 6.

The player conceded 35 runs in an over, which is the second worst over in ODIs. Van Bunge of Netherlands conceded 36 runs in an over in a World Cup Match against South Africa in 2007.

Despite conceding 35 runs in one over, Robin Peterson ended with an impressive match figure of 1/51 in seven overs. South Africa won the game convincingly by 56 runs. Peterson retired from all forms of the game on November 9, 2016.

Salman Butt, Pakistan - Worst duck-to-innings ratio

Salman Butt got out for a duck once in every five games in the 78 ODIs he played for Pakistan

Salman Butt holds this unprecedented infamous record. He got out for a duck once in every 5 innings. This is the worst duck-to-inning ratio for any batsman in ODIs. Salman Butt represented Pakistan in 78 ODIs. He has gotten out for a duck in an incredible 15 games. This is a surprising statistic for an opening batsman who maintained a healthy average of 36.82 with eight centuries and fourteen fifties. The second batsman in this list is Sri Lankan R. Kaluwihtharna, who has a duck-to-inning ratio of 1:8.

Though Sanath Jayasuriya holds the record for most number of ducks in ODIs (34), his duck-to-innings ratio is 1:13. Similarly, Shahid Afridi's duck-to-inning ratio is 1:13 which is far better than Salman Butt's 1:5.

Mick Lewis, Australia - Most expensive bowler in ODI history

Mick Lewis holds the infamous record of most runs conceded by a bowler in ODIs

Most cricket fans remember Mick Lewis, the former Australia fast bowler, for his 0 for 113 in the famous 438 chase in the deciding ODI between South Africa and Australia in Johannesburg eleven years ago.

The myopic nature of human mind was evident in Mick Lewis scenario as everyone forgot Herschelle Gibbs was dropped on 44, and then on a 108 on his bowling. Mick Lewis was then dropped out of the Australian Team. He never made a comeback to the International circuit.

David Boon, Australia - Slowest century in ODI history

Boon took 166 balls to score his century, the slowest hundred in ODI history

David Boon was an amiable opening batsman who established an outstanding rapport with his fellow opening batsman Geoff Marsh in assisting Australian Cricket team to recuperate from the poor showing of the early 80s.

In the Benson & Hedges World Series at Hobart on 10th December 1991, India won the toss and chose to bat against the Australians.

The mighty Australian bowling line-up dismissed India for a paltry 175. It was an effortless chase for the Australians where David Boon played brilliantly according to the match scenario.

The opener obtained a century off 166 balls and was declared as a Man of the Match. However, this infamous record is still with David Boon.

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.

What are some worst ever matches by any cricket team?

 Not just the match, I would say that the series was one of the worst series I have ever seen in my life in terms of the batting display.

India vs NZ, 2003. This series was played just before the world cup. And both the team struggled badly to score runs. Especially Indian team played like amateurs scoring totals of 120, 125 in most of the matches. In the 7 ODI’s Indian team crossed 200 only twice. And in the two tests Indian team couldn't score 200 even once in the 4 innings. And here I will consider the second test match one of the worst display of cricket.

India batted scored and were all out for 99. Only 2 players scored in double digits (Laxman scored 23 and Harbhajan Singh scored 20). Extras were the third highest contributors with 16. The team was bundled out in 38.2 overs.

In reply, Newzealand fared even worse. They got out for 94 giving India a lead of 5 runs. Zaheer Khan, took 5 wickets to give India some hope. But the Indian batting order quashed those hopes by their poor batting display in the second display in the 2nd innings as they were all out for 154 in the second innings. This time 5 players got double digits scores (Dravid scored 39, Sachin 32, Nehra 10, Harbhajan 18 and Sehwag 25).

Newzealand batted better (it was still poor batting display but better in the context of the series) as they chased down 160 losing six wickets and won by 4 wickets.

Now look at the figures of this match-

Rahul Dravid’s 39 was the highest score of the match for both the sides combined!!

3 sixes were hit in the whole match by both the sides with 2 of them but by tailenders (from India the only six was bit by Ashish Nehra, and from Newzealand Darryl Tuffel no 10 player and Craig McMilan)

507 runs at the loss of 36 wickets was the cumulative score of the match. Which means the average score of the match was 127 runs. And everage for runs per wicket was 14 runs.

The series was nightmare for both the teams and particularly for India for lost 7 out of 9 matches.

Who holds the worst record in cricket which is unbeaten till now?

 Most ODI runs without a Hundred

Misbah-ul-Haq holds the record for the most number of One Day International (ODI) runs scored without ever going past the 100-run mark. In a career spanning from 2002 to 2015, Misbah scored 5,122 runs and was once unbeaten on 96 but never once managed to get an ODI century.

Most nineties in Career |

Sachin Tendulkar leads the chart when it comes to most number of hundreds scored in a career having crossed the milestone a stunning 100 times. What is surprising is that he also holds the record for the most number of nineties in international cricket. He has a total of 28 nineties with 10 coming in Tests and 18 in ODIs.

Players run out most times in ODIs

Running yourself or your teammate out is considered a cardinal sin in cricket and no batsman would want to be involved in such blunders.

But there are some who cannot get their feet moving between the stumps.

You guessed it right, Inzamam-ul-Haq holds this unwanted record, but he also shares it with another Pakistani legend Wasim Akram.

Both have been run out 38 times.

Most runs in an over in Tests

Another legendary figure who has an unwanted record in the game is English pacer James Anderson. Jimmy has the most wickets for England in Test history but one of those overs that he bowled yielded 28 runs.

George Bailey was the batsman on the other end who punished the Englishman during an Ashes series.

Most runs without a wicket

Imran Tahir, the bearded, excitable South African spinner is another one who has the record for conceding the most number of runs without a wicket. The South African toiled for 37 long overs but was belted to all parts of the park.

He conceded a record 267 runs in those overs and did no pick up even one wicket.

Longest over in cricket

Bowling an over is an easy task. All you have to do is make sure that you place your foot behind the crease and throw the ball into a good area. Repeat the process six times and you have an over to your name. However, 17 balls to complete an over is a little bit of an understatement and Mohammad Sami performed the excruciating task of bowling that many deliveries.

In a match against the West Indies back in 2004, Sami gave away 7 no balls and 4 wides to finish a mammoth over.

Most time for a century

A century is a record that is special to any batsman as it requires great patience and determination to get. Some people will bide their time and make sure that they get to the milestone no matter what. Ask Mudassar Nazar, the Pakistani batsman who reached his century in just 557 minutes.( Yawn) .

What are the 10 worst movies of Bollywood nepotism?

 1. Azaad - This was Rasha Thadani’s Bollywood debut, and it went on to be a massive flop at the box office.

2. Loveyapa - Starring two nepo kids, Junaid Khan and Khushi Kapoor, this film was a disaster!

3. Naadaniyan - Stars Khushi Kapoor once again, and this time, it was with Ibrahim Ali Khan. The only memories people have of this film are of the cringe dialogues of Khushi.

4. Ladykler - Starring Arjun Kapoor, this film went on to become the movie with the lowest tickets ever sold in 2023.

5. Baaghi 3 - The storyline was illogical, and Tiger Shroff was a flop!

6. Ganapath - Another Tiger Shroff movie that was a disaster!

7. Loveyatri - Aayush Sharma made his Bollywood debut through the production house of his brother-in-law, Salman Khan, but the only noteworthy thing about this flop movie was a song that was a hit.

8. Student of the Year 2 - Featuring two nepo kids, Tiger Shroff and Ananya Panday, this movie was a disaster, and it also spoiled Tara Sutaria’s Bollywood debut.

9. Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri - Starring Ananya Pandey, the movie was even weirder than its title.

10. The Archies - Nepotism couldn't have peaked higher than this. Starring all the new nepo kids in a single frame, The Archies stars Agastya Nanda, Suhana Khan, and Khushi Kapoor, who made their Bollywood debuts with this film, and the movie was a cringefest!

What are some of the worst examples of historical errors in movies?

 Apocalypto, 2006, directed by…

Ah. Mel Gibson.

Apocalypto is a film about the Mayan collapse, which happened by 900 A.D, and went to painstaking detail to show this. The film shows the famine surrounding the collapse, with barren fields and dying crops, due to the Mayans expanding too fast, cutting down too many trees for their cities and ruining their soil for crops.

But nevertheless, the film opens showing a hunter-gatherer tribe in the jungle.

Okayyyyyy…

They look Mayan I suppose, and they are a hunter-gatherer tribe, so I suppose this could be an accurate look? Right let’s move on and say they look Mayan.

Mel Gibson even had the actors speak Yucatec Mayan, so props to him.

Their village is raided and a lot of inhabitants captured, and are set off on a journey across Mayan land to get to a Mayan city. The journey takes about two days to get to the city, which isn’t that much of a problem I suppose, it’s accurate.

The problems arise on the way.

So as they are on their merry travels, they come across an infected girl, crying over her mother, who died of an infection that results in blisters all across the body. The girl has this unknown disease too. Don’t hang around infected dead bodies kids.

Hold on. What are those blisters?

They look quite similar to smallpox blisters.

Obviously, the boy in the picture has a very bad case of it, and far more than the girl does. But nonetheless, that looks like smallpox, right? In fact, let’s look at her mother.

It is smallpox. It’s fucking smallpox.

That disease that the conquistadors brought with them that decimated native populations as they had never encountered it before and thus had no resistance against it?

But…the Christopher Columbus first arrived in 1492…

The Mayan collapse happened before 900 A.D.

Are you shitting me?

*Gibson giggling…Gibbling?*

So as the captives are taken to the Mayan city…finally. It looks good.

It looks good. There’s lime quarrying on the outskirts, which the process to make was one of the prime reasons to the collapse, at least in cities. The women look accurate, with absolutely bonkers hair.

It’s good. The pyramids are accurate, the industry, trade and general hustle and bustle is accurate. It’s very good. Mr Gibson, you’ve outdone yourself here.

Then we get to the sacrifice bit. The captives are dragged to the top of the pyramid, laid over an altar, have their heart extracted and are beheaded.

Isn’t that technique borrowed from the Aztec’s…who aren’t around yet?

Mayans preferred decapitation or non-lethal bloodletting. They wouldn’t learn the extracting the heart technique for a few hundred years.

Plus, that’s a hell of a lot of people they’re killing? There’s piles on piles of bodies at the base of the pyramid, far more than the Mayan’s would sacrifice. Wow. There’s even a mass grave later in the film. Full to the brim of bodies. The Mayan’s wouldn’t sacrfice that many at one time.

Nevertheless, the main character is saved by a timely solar eclipse, suggesting to the Mayans that their gods are appeased and no more sacrifices are needed.

Okay this is good. The Mayan leaders would control the populace through their religion, manipulating them and using their knowledge of solar eclipses to suggest when their gods are happy or unhappy, essentially, and what the populace should do about it. They were good astronomers, so when in the movie, the priest smiles at the king, it shows they knew the eclipse was going to happen. Good. Very good Mr Gibson.

The Mayans decide to spare the rest of the prisoners being sacrifices and instead decide to use them as target practice. Nothing wrong here. The main character kills the main bad guy’s son and runs into the forest.

The last half hour or so is a huge chase, with the main character using tricks like tree frog venom on blow darts etc until…until…

*More gibbling…almost maniacal*

There are…things in the background.

No.

Please Gibson.

Please.

I can’t think of a single explanation. The chase took 600 years? The journey did? They’re time travelling conquistadors? The film follows generations of one family, the main character being identical every generation?

I…can’t think of anything more broken.

So if the conquistadors are only just arriving (the characters have clearly never seen anything like this before) how did that girl get smallpox? It’s still the Mayan collapse right? It can’t be. What fucking year is this Gibson? What is this?!
