Gurnur Brar is in the unwanted record books due to a nightmarish spell at the LordIndian Gurnur Brar (photo by ANI) India’s Gurnoor Brar endured a tough outing at Lord’s on Sunday, recording the most expensive figures by any bowler in ODI history during the crucial third match against England. The right-arm seamer finished with figures of 0 for 97 from his 10 overs as England scored 387 for 3, eclipsing Lord’s previous unwanted record set by former India all-rounder Karsan Ghavri, who conceded 81 runs in 11 overs against England in 1975. Brar’s spell was also included in the Indian Book of Records. His 0/97 is now the third most expensive innings by an Indian bowler in ODI cricket, behind only Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s 1/106 against South Africa at the Wankhede Stadium in 2015 and Vinay Kumar’s 1/102 against Australia in Bangalore in 2013.Most Expensive Indian ODI Bowler Figures1/106 (10) Bhuvneshwar Kumar vs SA Wankhede 20151/102 (9) Vinay Kumar v.

Ben Duckett led England with a superb 141 while Jacob Bethell contributed 91 as the pair put together an impressive opening partnership of 192 that laid the foundation for a huge total. Throughout his spell, Brar found no relief as England’s batters continued to attack in the final overs. Joe Root accelerated to an unbeaten 74 in just 49 balls before Jos Buttler scored 41 off just 13 deliveries to take the hosts to 387 for 3, the highest ODI score recorded at Lord’s. India’s pace attack was collective. Prasidh Krishna returned figures of 2 for 69, Arshdeep Singh remained wicketless conceding 72 runs and Prince Yadav took one wicket but conceded 79 runs. Together, the four fast bowlers with a combined experience of just 51 ODIs were unable to contain England’s aggressive batting. England scored 387 for 3 and also surpassed their previous highest ODI score at Lord’s (334 for 4) against India in 1975, setting a new standard at this iconic stadium. For Brar, the trip marked a harsh learning experience as his figures became an unwelcome part of both Lord’s and India’s ODI history.
