Origin of the legend
One such story is of a humongous 286 runs scored off one ball. Pall Mall Gazette – an English newspaper with roots in London, all the way back in 1865 – is the originator of this quite unbelievable tale which has travelled around the world ever since being first published on 15th January 1894.
In its ‘Sporting Notes and News’ section, the paper noted that a match was played at Bunbury in Western Australia between Victoria and a ‘scratch XI from the neighbourhood’. Victorians went in to bat and the first ball was hit into the branches of a tall jarrah tree which was inside the ground.
Now, as the legend goes, the home team appealed for a ‘lost ball’, but the umpires could see the exact spot where the ball was stuck and refused to declare the ball ‘lost’.
At this time now, the Victorians started running between the wickets. Unable to find any alternative, an axe was called for bringing down the tree. But as luck would have it, they failed to procure an axe and the batsmen kept on running.
Next, someone brought out a rifle to dislodge the ball from its position, and finally after many shots missing the target, the ball was finally shot down and brought to the ground. Fantastically, nobody caught the ball before it hit the ground.
The story goes on to state that the batsmen had run 286 runs by then, creating the world record for most runs off a single delivery in cricket. It adds that the Victorians declared then, bringing probably the shortest innings to a close, if this legend is to be believed, and won the match!
