Napier on fire

This week's highlight was undoubtedly the astonishing innings of Graham Napier at Chelmsford.

Score	Player	For	Against	Venue	Season
152	GR Napier	Essex	Sussex	Chelmsford	2008
141	CL White	Somerset	Worcestershire	Worcester	2006
116	GA Hick	Worcestershire	Northamptonshire	Luton	2004
116	IJ Thomas	Glamorgan	Somerset	Taunton	2004
116	CL White	Somerset	Gloucestershire	Taunton	2006

However, he was not quite able to overtake Brendon McCullum's undefeated innings of 158 for the Kolkata Knight Riders against the Bangalore Royal Challengers at Bangalore in the IPL this April. In his innings, Napier hit sixteen sixes, which smashed the previous competition record of nine. Here are the most sixes in a Twenty20 Cup innings:

Player	Team	Against	Venue	Season	Runs	6s
GR Napier	Essex	Sussex	Chelmsford	2008	152	16
MA Ealham	Notts	Yorkshire	Nottingham	2004	91	9
CL White	Somerset	Gloucestershire	Taunton	2006	116	9
GA Hick	Worcestershire	Norhamptonshire	Kidderminster	2007	110	8
