Could u believe it ? Yes it has happened in game. Here are the details

A NJSCUA T-20 game played on Sept 26, 2010 will perhaps go into cricket record books due to one of the EPIC Innings ever played in a T-20 game, ANYWHERE WHERE across the world.

On a gloomy and overcast day, Amir Rafique of Dynamic Cricket Club scored 208 not out in a New Jersey State Cricket Umpires Association (NJSCUA – http://NJSCUA.com) T20 match held at Wilmington, DE against AIM Cricket Club on Sunday, September 26, 2010.

After winning the toss Dynamic Cricket Club opted to bat. Amir who also happens to be the captain of the team opened the batting with Waqas Shahid. The opening pair put on super quick fire 100 runs in the first eight overs; however, the next twelve overs saw some unprecedented hitting that would have given Sehwags and Afridis of the Atlantic Region some stiff competition. 200+ plus runs were plundered. The opposition bowlers tried all the tricks up their sleeves but could not stop Amir in clearing the boundaries effortlessly.

No Mongoose was used, No special golf ball in the gloves, No Substitute Runners. Instead, the traditional willow along with some classical straight hitting saw Amir reach hundred within 12 overs. However, his next 100 runs within the remaining overs saw some sublime cuts, brutal pulls and exemplary straight lofted drives. The opposition thought that a thunderbolt had struck them as spin, fast and part-timers were all put to the cleaners, bludgeoned and bulldozed. Vinamra Kumar of Dynamic Cricket Club said that Amir’s double century was a remarkable achievement as scoring even a century in a T20 requires sheer force along with some luck. It was a ferocious assault that will be remembered for a long time said Vinamra.

Dynamic’s innings ended at 315/2 with Amir contributing two thirds of the runs scored. 315/2 in a T20 game must itself be a record of sorts but the sheer magic of Amir’s innings overshadowed the proceedings. Everyone on the ground including all the players and spectators graciously acknowledged the effort. At the end of the game, Amir said “It was just my day and lady luck was on my side.”

AIM in reply tried to make a match of it but the task was too tall. AIM bundled out for 167, giving a comprehensive victory to Dynamic.
