[size=5][color=#000000][font=arial, sans-serif][b] Cornish cricketer Andrew Brenton hits 311 runs in 40 overs[/b]
[color=#4F4D4B]By Phil Harlow[/color][color=#4F4D4B]BBC South West Sport[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C]A club cricketer from Cornwall has hit an astonishing 311 runs for his local side - in just 40 overs.[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C]Luckett batsman Andrew Brenton set a new record for the highest individual score in Cornish cricket history, hitting 53 boundaries and 11 sixes.[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C]Brenton's remarkable innings helped his side reach 513-5 off 48 overs - another Cornish record - against Tideford.[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C]Batting at three, the self-employed builder came in during the fourth over and shared 468 for the second wicket.[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C]That partnership - with opener Jack Sleep contributing 143 runs to the mammoth total - saw the team's score move from 5-1 to 473-2.[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C]He was eventually dismissed in the 44th by bowler Nick Pooley, who also took the wicket of Sleep.[/color]

[size=5][color=#000000][font=arial, sans-serif][color=#4F4D4B]Luckett club official Ian Robert[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C]It helped Luckett win the match at Chapel Field by 313 runs after Division Two East opponents Tideford made 210-6 in reply.[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C][url="http://luckettcc.play-cricket.com/scoreboard/scorecard.asp?id=11670310"]Tideford's bowling figures[/url] made painful reading, with David Lockett and Elliot Goss each conceding 100 runs and not a single maiden over sent down during the innings.[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C]Brenton has steered clear of the limelight after his astonishing performance, declining requests for interviews about his innings.[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C]"Andrew's a really down-to-earth guy - we had to drag him out to pose for the photo next to the scoreboard," club official Ian Roberts told BBC Sport South West.[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C]"He's just a very good cricketer and I'm sure he could play at a higher level and get paid for his troubles but he just wants to play with his mates at Luckett - that's Andrew all over.[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C]"He's a talented all-round sportsman, he's a great goalkeeper as well!"[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C]The previous Cornish individual record of 300 was set by Penryn's Adrian Winnan in Division Eight West in 2000, while the previous top team score was Tintagel's 438-3 against Stoke Climsland in Division Three East in 2002.[/color]
[color=#1C1C1C]In professional cricket, the highest one-day total is 496-4, made by Surrey in a 50-over game against Gloucestershire at The Oval in 2007.[/color][/font][/color][/size]
