The test is the oldest form of cricket. In this format, the patience of the batsman is tested. The batsman has to move slowly and take his team to a strong position. There were many such batsmen in world cricket, who also batted vigorously in Test cricket. Today we are going to tell you about the batsman whose name is recorded for hitting the most boundaries in a Test inning.
We are talking about former English batsman John Edrich. In 1965, a Test series match was played between England and New Zealand at the ground of Leeds. In this match, England won the toss and batted first. While batting first, the first wicket of the England team fell within 13 runs. But after this the second opener batsman John Edrich wreaked havoc on the bowlers. After the fall of the first wicket, he took the lead and started batting in a fast fashion.
He played cricket like T20 even in that period. He batted at the crease for 532 minutes and scored an unbeaten 310 runs facing 450 balls. During this, he hit a record 52 fours and 5 sixes in his innings. This is the world record for most boundaries in an innings of any Test, which has not been broken to date.
