Biggest hitters in the game.

He showed that in RSA, i still say Ali Brown is the biggest hit, 2 double hundreds in limited overs, including one 40 over game, and neither at Taunton.
Doesn't mean he is the biggest. Sixes can be hit flat too, and it is possible to run threes. He could also hit a lot of fours. Doesn't neccesarily mean he is the biggest hitter. Probably just the most proficient hitter ;)

Stop being such a pedant, anyone who has seen him knows he hits sixes for fun.

Normally mentions sixes hit, this doesn't though. 268 highest score in 45 overs :hpraise
His 268 came in a 50 over game, off 160 balls, with 30 4s and 12 6s. Was at the Oval, the biggest ground in England.

Surrey scored 438, but only won by 9 runs!

He was probably helped by the pitch though, as Robert Croft managed to score 119 from 69 balls!

If you'd have said Devon Malcolm scored 119 off of 69 balls i'd have been impressed. :D He scoeed 192 in boundaries alone :hpraise
 
Ali Brown is a very unfortunate international player, especially in the era of English cricket in which he has played most of his career.
 
Yes, wouldn't put him in their just on one innings, although he's not just a 1 innings, just not as consistent.
 
I nominate Shewag........when its his day no target is impossible for him and he can take the game away in a few overs........I can still remember when Sehwag smashed his way to a 100 off 70 balls, during some overs he went totel beserk.......scoring 4's evrey ball or evrey 2 balls.
