Recently a bizarre incident took place in the U-16 Harris Shield match where a team were bowled out for a single-digit total while chasing a whopping 761/4 in 45 overs. The match was between Swami Vivekananda International School and Children’s Welfare Centre School and the scorecard showed the horrible result in cricket’s history.

Children’s Welfare Centre School had to do a herculean task. In reply to the mountain of runs, they were bowled out for 7 which came through extras where none of their batsmen scored a single run. Swami Vivekananda International School from Borivali scored 761/4 on the back of a triple century from Meet Mayekar who blasted an unbeaten 338 off 134 deliveries, including seven sixes and 56 fours.
