This is in a match I played online. The other guy I was playing with scored 150. I declared on zero, thinking he will play again and I can just chase the total in the last inning. But forgot since it was exactly 150, I was made to follow on. I then scored 751-9 and won the game.

The 2nd screenshot shows the scorecard, with one of my batsmen getting 366.

The 3rd one shows all the partnerships. So my first tail-ender came to bat when I lost the fifth wicket. I declared after losing the 9th wicket, so the runs I scored in between 751-471= 334. The bowlers' total runs add up to 29, so the rest 305 runs came from my batsman and some were extras, I'll assume around 15 since the total is 23, and my previous batsmen had played a lot of the overs as well. So my batsman alone scored 290. That's 87% of the runs scored in 334 belonged to my batsman. It would be 90% if you take out the extras and only include the runs bowlers scored with him. I only had him taking the strike, and its amazing he was able to bat for around 2 sessions on full aggression and also managing to keep most of the strike. Would have been nice if he had got 400, but still great innings nevertheless.

Hoping to see/hear of some of your batsmen's innings with the tail-enders. I think most of those are special if you're batting 2nd and that innings wins you the game.
