Most Runs in Boundaries in a Test innings?

England John Edrich might strike some as a bit of a surprise if they remember John Edrich as a rather dour defender in the later part of his career. But in his early days he was a powerful hard-hitting and uncompromising striker of the ball, and for England against New Zealand at Headingley in 1965 no fewer than 238 of Edrich's eventual 310 not out - 52 fours and five sixes which came in boundaries. Australian relentless opening batsman Matthew Hayden ran him close with 218 in boundaries with 38 fours and 11 sixes during in his 380 for Australia v Zimbabwe in Perth in 2003-04. The next comes burly Inzamam-ul-Haq, with 206 with 38 fours and nine sixes for Pakistan against New Zealand in Lahore in 2001-02, and Virender Sehwag, with 202 including 40 fours, seven sixes for India v Sri Lanka in Mumbai in 2009-10. As far as record in one-day internationals is 150 runs in boundaries, by Australian Shane Watson in his 185 not out for Australia against Bangladesh in Mirpur in April 2011, which contained 15 fours - and a record 15 sixes too.
