Glenn Turner faced 201 balls while scoring 171* against East Africa in 1975, which was the longest ODI innings by balls faced at that time. This record stood for many years. Sunil Gavaskar and Sachin Tendulkar played long innings but none faced as many balls in a single ODI, while Dean Jones was known for rapid scoring rather than long innings.
