Ollie Robinson Sets Unwanted Record for Second-Costliest Over in First-Class Cricket

England seamer Ollie Robinson conceded 43 runs in a single over during a County Championship match, marking the second-costliest over in First-Class cricket history. Playing for Sussex against Leicestershire, Robinson surpassed the previous English record held by Alex Tudor. The all-time record remains 77 runs conceded by Bert Vance in 1990.

In a staggering display, England seamer Ollie Robinson on Wednesday registered an unwanted record, conceding 43 runs in a single over during a County Championship match.

Playing for Sussex against Leicestershire, the experienced right-arm bowler was hit for five sixes, including three off no-balls, and three fours, while attempting to complete his over.

This performance surpassed the previous English record of 38 runs conceded by Alex Tudor. However, the highest in First-Class cricket remains Bert Vance's 77 runs in 1990.
