West Augusta B Grade batsman Josh Dunstan has smashed as many as 307 runs in a 35-overs-a-side match against Central Stirling on Saturday with the help of 40 humongous sixes. Dunstan’s score was 6.72 percent of his team’s total of 354 as reported by cricket.com.au.

Earlier, Sir Viv Richards holds the record for the highest percentage of runs in a completed innings. He accomplished the feat when he hit an unbeaten 189 against England at Old Trafford in 1984. West Indies’ team total stood at 272/9. This meant that he had scored 69.48 percent of his team’s total score.

It can be said precisely that Dunstan’s effort in South Australia is way above the Richards’ percentage. Surprisingly five of Dunstan’s teammates fell on duck, the second-best score after Dunstan’s 307 was 18 not out.

Dunstan put on a 203-run for the seventh wicket with Ben Russell in which Russell’s contribution was just five.
