Longest bowling run-up (male)
The longest bowling run-up in a cricket match is 2.7 km (1.6 mi). This feat was achieved by Jason Rawson (UK) in a Twenty-20 match played at Salesbury Cricket Club in Salesbury, Blackburn, the UK on 20 March 2010. It was the first delivery of the match which batsman Ian Riley smashed for a boundary. The match was abandoned by the umpire after six balls due to inclement weather (persistent rains).
