Martin Guptill became the latest batsman to make Cricket World Cup history with an innings of 237 not out in a total of 393/6 which led unbeaten New Zealand to a 143-run win over the West Indies in Saturday’s lop-sided quarterfinal.
Guptill’s innings, compiled from 163 balls and including 11 sixes and 24 fours, was the highest by an individual in a World Cup match.
