Twenty-year-old Shane Dadswell scored 490 runs for NWU Pukke against Potch Dorp XI in a 50-over club game on Saturday. 

According to WebSports, the wicketkeeper-batsman took just 151 balls to reach the massive total, as he smacked an astonishing 57 sixes and 27 fours.

The highest score in List A cricket came from Ali Brown, who hit 268 for Surrey. The highest ODI score in history was 264 by Rohit Sharma against Sri Lanka.
