Andy Flower (Zimbabwe) is indeed the only wicketkeeper-batsman to score a century on his ODI debut. He scored 115* against India in 2001. While several wicketkeeper-batsmen have scored centuries in ODIs, Flower's achievement remains unique as it happened on debut. This required both batting skill and the opportunity to open the innings or bat high in the order.

Despite being one of the greatest bowlers in history, Shane Warne only took a five-wicket haul in One Day Internationals once (5/33 against the West Indies in 1996). He was more prolific in Test cricket.

Adam Parore (New Zealand) scored 96 runs against India in 1994 without hitting a single boundary (four or six). This remains a unique record in ODI history for the highest score without a boundary.

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.

India defended the lowest total in a full 50-over ODI (not shortened by rain) by bowling out East Africa for 120 after scoring only 120 themselves? Actually, India defended 105 against Bangladesh in 2014, which is a record for India.

Mumbai Indians recorded their biggest victory of IPL 2010 against Delhi Daredevils, which was also the largest victory margin in the tournament that season. This was a comprehensive win by Mumbai.

Yusuf Pathan hit the most sixes in IPL 2010, showcasing his aggressive batting style and ability to clear the boundary consistently. His power-hitting made him one of the most dangerous batsmen that season.
