how many balls played in 1 over and what is the most you can score in two overs? can any one help me There are 6 balls in a over. Assuming there are no wides or no balls the maximum number of runs in two overs is 72. Though the average for Test is probably about 4-8 runs in two overs, 6-12 in one day and 16-20 in twenty20 cricket. No player has got 72 runs of 2 consecutive overs although Gibbs and Sobers have managed to get 36 in a over. Gibbs did it against the Netherlands while Sobers scored his against Glamorgan.
