Most runs conceded by bowlers in an ODI World Cup inning
In this article, some bowlers will be discussed who are holding the record for conceding the most runs in a World Cup innings.
3. Jason Holder against South Africa in 2015
In the 19th match of the 2015 World Cup, South Africa captain AB de Villiers led his team from the front against the West Indies. The right-handed Protea batter notched up an unbeaten 162 off 66 and helped his team hammer the Windies team by a massive margin of 257 runs.
After the game, there were a lot of talks about de Villiers’ excellence and Jason Holder’s terrible bowling display. Holder, who started well in the contest with the crucial wicket of the wicketkeeper batter Quinton de Kock, lost his rhythm in the later stages of the innings.
The lanky pacer bowled a 10-over spell in the game and ended up as the costliest bowler in the match. His bowling figures were 10-2-104-1 at the end of South Africa’s innings. These numbers also made him the bowler who splurged the most runs for the West Indies in a World Cup innings.
