The greatest victories


Because each team completes its 300 pitches at one time there are two ways to win in cricket, by races or by wickets . To win by races you have to hit first and eliminate the ten rival batters before they reach the mark established by the first team; To win by wickets you have to bat second and beat the runs scored by the opposing team before you eliminate all hitters.
Thirteen times he has won a match for more than 200 races and the record is held by India who, in Port of Spain in 2007, defeated Bermuda by 257 races (413 to 156). India snatched the record to Australia that four years earlier had won by 256 races to Namibia.
The maximum possible victory for wickets is to win by ten, that is, to overcome in races your rival when you have not eliminated any batter. Eleven times this has happened and the most outstanding was New Zealand against Kenya in 2011, which in only 48 balls and when they subtracted 252, had already improved the Kenyan brand without suffering eliminations.

But New Zealand is not the team that had more balls left in a victory, that record is from England that in 1979 at Old Trafford (not the football stadium but the cricket of the same name that is also in Manchester) beat Canada when he lacked 277 balls to throw.

Cricket is a sport crushed by statistics and there are many sections, both defensive and offensive.

Gary Kirsten set the career record by scoring 188 against the United Arab Emirates in 1996. He was the second batter, meaning he participated from the start of the game, and was not eliminated. The New Zealander James Franklin scored 31 runs in only 8 balls against Canada in the last World Cup, a ratio of 387.50, more than a hundred points higher than the previous best mark. Siete wickets is the best record in World Cup history in a single match and has been produced three times. In 1983 the windie Winston Davis did it before Australia and twenty years later they equaled the English Andy Bichel (also again...

Hat tricks

The hat-trick is a word of cricket that has found accommodation in many other sports and that consists of eliminating three batters in three consecutive balls. The manner in which the elimination occurs, for example, by directly knocking down your wicket or catching the ball without a boat, is irrelevant. If you see a game it seems impossible to happen but in the World Cup it has happened seven times. The first was made to pray and occurred in the fourth edition of the championship, on October 31, 1987 in Nagpur (India) when the Indian Chetan Sharma eliminated three New Zealanders knocking down their wicket to all of them (only case in history). In 1999 it was obtained by the Pakistani Saqlain Mushtaq. In 2003 there were two cases thanks to Celeste Chaminda Vaas and Australian Brett Lee. In 2007 he did another Ceylon, Lasith Malinga, who, in the following shot to his hat-trick eliminated another South African batter. And in the last World Cup, in 2011, the Barbadian Kemar Roach...
