New Delhi. The batsmen of England who started the process of beating the bowlers of Pakistan in Rawalpindi Test on one day, stopped at 657 runs on the second day. England finished their first innings at 657 runs on the second day of the Rawalpindi Test. England scored so many runs in 101 overs.

Leg-spinner Zahid Mahmood, who made his Test debut at the age of 34, was thrashed so much by the English batsmen that he already had an embarrassing record in his name. He became the bowler who took the most runs in an innings on Test debut. Zahid bowled the maximum 33 overs in England’s first innings. In this, he looted 235 runs. Means more than 7 runs in every over. This is the highest run rate in an innings of 100+ overs. Zahid threw only one over maiden out of 33. He definitely took 4 wickets.

Earlier, the record of giving the most runs in an innings of debut test was in the name of Sri Lankan spinner Suraj Randiv. He gave 222 runs in 2010. Leslie Fleetwood of Australia holds the record for scoring the most runs in an innings of a Test. He gave away 298 runs in an innings of the Oval Test against England in 1938.
