The New Zealander Lee Germon holds the record for the most sixes in an over.

Lee Germon of New Zealand is the player with the most sixes in an over.

Lee Germon, a former Canterbury wicketkeeper, owns the record for the most sixes in one over.

The day Lee Kenneth Germon was born was November 4, 1968.

He was a former New Zealand cricket captain and wicketkeeper.

He had hit eight sixes off Bert Vance’s over in a 1990 first-class match between Wellington and Canterbury.

In that over, Canterbury scored 77 runs, and Vance bowled a 22-ball over that had 17 no-balls.

Only five deliveries were legal in the over because the umpires were disoriented during play.
