Explanation

In the 2007 ICC World Cup, Herschelle Gibbs (South Africa) hit six consecutive sixes in one over against Daan van Bunge (Netherlands). This was the first such instance in ODI cricket. Stuart Broad was hit for six sixes by Yuvraj Singh in a T20 World Cup match, not an ODI.

AI explanation

Dutch bowler Daan van Bunge was hit for six consecutive sixes by South Africa's Herschelle Gibbs in a single over during the 2007 Cricket World Cup, an unprecedented feat in One Day International history. The question asks about the bowler on the receiving end of this record over, which was van Bunge. The other named players were not involved in that particular over.
