Explanation

Herschelle Gibbs's 175 against Australia (434-run match, 2006) contained an exceptionally high proportion of boundary runs (21 fours and 7 sixes = 126 runs in boundaries). While Sachin's 200 and Dhoni's 183 were great innings, Gibbs scored a larger percentage of his runs through boundaries due to the aggressive batting approach on a small Johannesburg ground. This was the highest ODI score at the time.
