How he made his runs. First, ball by ball:

afridi-ball-by-ball

The cumulative progression:

And the percentage of dot balls, singles, twos and boundaries

    I don’t have a database of his innings, and I haven’t checked Cricinfo yet, but I will when I feel less lazy, but I can say for sure that for all his innings above 10, this is surely a first for Afridi – the fact that over 50% of his runs came in singles.

    WOW!

      Actually, Q. It is not the %age of runs, but the %age of balls off which he scored singles or boundaries, or conceded a dot ball. However, the point remains, he took singles off more half the deliveries he faced.
