Liam Livingstone wreaks havoc at Lord's to break multiple records

As an icing on the cake, the England batter smashed 28 runs off Mitchell Starc in the final over of the innings

England's Liam Livingstone brutalised Mitchell Starc in the final over of the fourth One Day International (ODI) against Australia at Lord's, taking 28 runs off the pacer. This is the most runs an Australian has conceded in a single over of an ODI. Starc eventually finished with figures of 0/70 from his quota of eight overs.

Livingstone finished unbeaten on 62 off 27, but there were some useful contributions from skipper Harry Brook (87 off 58) and opening batter Bun Duckett (63 off 62).

The England batter also hit as many as seven sixes in the innings - the most by any batter at Lord's - equalling Andrew Flintoff's feat - against West Indies in 2004. England also managed to hit 12 sixes overall, which is also the most by a team at this venue.
