A blast from the past. Brathwaite and Chanderpaul The Younger just one ball short of the record - although given the lack of older records, I'm guess balls faced is a relatively newer recorded dataset?

I'm sure this sort of this was commonplace back in proper 1950s Test cricket. Back when men were men, they smoked 20 a day, told the foreigners with different skin colours what they thought of them and then would run in and do 45 over spells from the sightscreens and then go back to their counties on the rest day on Sunday and do another 60 over spell. PROPER CRICKET!

They seem to have accelerated remarkably well, seeing as they were only
220-0 off 89 overs, I think it was. And that seemed to be after two days
play, presumably heavily rain-interrupted. Bazball it wasn't.

684 balls and it wasnt a record? crikey. They scored another 227-7 off 54
overs so the windies have finally found a team, besides england, they can
score big against, at least tangerine and braithwaite have anyway.

PROPER CRICKET!

According to Charles Davis's scorecard, Vinoo Mankad and Pankaj Roy's
opening partnership of 413 v NZ at Madras in 1955/56 took about 840
balls, which would have been over 150 more than the top two shown at the
link above.

http://www.sportstats.com.au/zArchive/1950s/1955IN/1955IN5.pdf

Simpson and Lawry's 382 at Bridgetown in 1965 took 715 balls.
