South Africa break long-standing record with 17 sixes against Bangladesh – ICC Cricket


Bangladesh v South Africa, Scorecard
South Africa broke a long-standing record of more than 14 years during the first innings of the second Test against Bangladesh in Chattogram.
The Proteas smashed a total of 17 sixes during the innings as they amassed 575/6 declared, breaking their previous best total of 15 sixes they had managed against the West Indies back in 2010.
It was the equal third most amount of sixes ever achieved in one innings in men's Test cricket, with New Zealand holding the record of 22 sixes against Pakistan in 2014.
Tony de Zorzi, David Bedingham and Wiaan Mulder all managed four sixes each, while Tristan Stubbs (three) and Senuran Muthusamy (two) also cleared the rope on multiple occasions.
Only last year the Proteas broke the record for most sixes at a single edition of an ICC Men's Cricket World Cup when they hit a whopping total of 99 sixes during the 2023 event in India.

Sit back and enjoy all 99 sixes that South Africa smashed at the 2023 edition of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup.
South Africa's big total put them in control of the second Test against Bangladesh, with newly-crowed No.1 Test bowler Kagiso Rabada taking two key wickets prior to stumps on day two to leave the hosts reeling at 38/4 in reply.
If South Africa can complete a series sweep over Bangladesh it will leave them well placed to reach a first ICC World Test Championship Final next year, with remaining series at home against Sri Lanka and Pakistan.
