HIGHLIGHTS | Louis Kimber SHATTERS First-Class Records at Hove 💯📊

Leicestershire batter Louis Kimber blitzed the fastest double century in County Championship history, broke Ben Stokes' record for the most sixes in an innings and smashed Ollie Robinson for 43 off one over to set a world record, to make it a day to remember at Hove.
Sussex won the thriller by 18 runs despite Kimber's rapid 243 from 127 balls on day four.

Even as a Sussex supporter, part of me wanted Louis Kimber to get Leicestershire over the line! Incredible innings!

[@richpowell5449]

Unreal knock, such brutal hitting. 10 balls to get off the mark too! Well played Kimber, your day in the sun. 👏👏👏

[@russelblackwell6041]

the flick shot timing for 6 effortless power hitting best innings I've seen in a long time

[@JessieDrury1]

I’m a Glous fan, but was glued to this yesterday afternoon, Kimber was brilliant

[@lomax343]

County cricket hasn't seen an innings like that since E B Alletson in 1911. No, I didn't witness Alletson's knock, but I am a cricket nerd.

Badger!

[@DavidTaylor-yl3yw]

My first thought was Gilbert Jessop, but I'm not sure even he managed anything like this!

King 👑

This is freaking Unbelievable 🤩

[@robertvere2263]

Sad that he couldn't quite get his team over the line but a brilliant effort. Well bowled to get him too. Almost a leg break by the fast bowler. Change of pace got the wicket.

[@TheMrWinthorpe]

[@Zee-tb9zn]

Shame he couldn't finish the game but that was a fantastic innings from Louis. I'll be honest, I haven't seen much of county cricket before but I'm looking forward to watching more of em :))

[@markarnold8160]

I've seen this story of thing at village green level. If it's your day, BOOM!!

[@natty187]

I was so gutted when he got out, shame not to have got the team over the line. But a great individual performance

[@yacsem]

Modern bats are killing cricket. Still, well played Kimber.

[@owensteam]

I was looking at his stats on cricinfo and didn’t look special but aware that doesn’t always tell the full story, can anyone tell me if this was a long time coming or is more likely to be a flash in the pan so to speak?

[@HughWeibgen]

Now whats the purpose of performing in one match no ones gonna select him from ecb

[@alanwood4968]

SO WHOS PLAYING WHO?

[@portcullis5622]

Leicestershire are batting, chasing 464 to win and Sussex are bowling.
