India seamer Munaf Patel etched his name in the record books for the wrong reasons, after conceding 25 runs in an over in the West Indies' first innings of the third cricket Test in St Kitts on Friday.
Patel, in his 19th over, was smashed for six successive fours, including one off a no-ball by Ramnaresh Sarwan, who went on to score 116, in the morning session on the second day at Warner Park stadium.
That put the right arm seamer from Bharuch second in the list of Indian bowlers who have conceded most runs in an over in Tests.
Off spinner Harbhajan Singh tops the chart. He went for 27 runs -- the sequence being 6, 6, 6, 6, 2, 1 to Shahid Afridi in the Lahore Test earlier this year.
From the batsman's side, Sarwan's feat is only the third occasion when six fours were scored in an over in Tests.
Sandeep Patil gave England's Bob Willis similar treatment at Manchester in 1982, although the sequence was punctuated by a no-ball.
Chris Gayle collected as many boundaries from Matthew Hoggard at the Oval in 2004.
The record for most runs in an over in Tests, however, belongs to Brian Lara, who plundered 28 runs (4, 6, 6, 4, 4, 4) from Robin Peterson of South Africa at Johannesburg in 2003-04.
