Coventry's 194 and Anwar

[edit]

Just a quick note. People have written that Coventry surpassed Anwar's record by being not out, often referencing Cricinfo's stat list with him at the top. It should be noted that this is merely convention. The article on the match itself on Cricinfo clearly referred to him as having made the "joint highest individual score in an ODI." See here [1].

Agree, I am not sure where the whole idea of a "not out" record being better than a "out" record came from, it is not something I have ever heard of before ... Mattinbgn\talk 01:26, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
