World Record looks set to go

[rogernumber10]

Going into today's fourth day play in the India - Pakistan test, the last line of the Pakistan scorecard of 5-369 reads
Extras (b 31, lb 25, nb 14) 70

That's just one behind the all-time record of 71 conceded by the West Indies in 1988 (against Pakistan as well) and young Kartik has obviously had a disaster behind the stumps with 31 byes already, and five wickets still to be taken.

One very impressive record, hope they keep batting and perhaps we could have 100 extras

[smac]

Does the wicketkeepr waive to the crowd if they get to 100 byes?

Thats funny for you !

[locky801]

Interesting point, player waves the bat, bowler on 5 wickets holds the ball aloft, spose the keeper has to waive his gloves in the air and take a bow

[RustyCage]

Up to 76 extras now, 35 byes.

That's probably for 5 dismissals.

May get close to 100 extras if Pakistan is playing for "1st innings points" only.

Three more byes are needed to break the Test innings record - 37, conceded by England vs Australia in 1934 at The Oval.

Up to 76 extras now, 35 byes.

India 626 and 2/131 (Stumps Day 4)
