It’s a reflection of Aiden Markram’s weirdly modest return in the ODI format that the 175 he scored in Sunday’s final ODI against the Netherlands equated to more than 10% of all the runs he’s made in the format since making his debut in 2017.
Markram, after taking 47 balls for his first 50, faced 39 more deliveries to get to 100 and then a further 29 to reach 150. He drove powerfully and with typical elegance, while the short ball, which the Dutch offered up often, was disdainfully dispatched.
His 175 matched Herschelle Gibbs' effort in the ‘438 game’ leaving the pair tied for the sixth-highest ODI score by for South Africa.
