Liam Livingstone Facts
- Liam had first come into the spotlight in April 2015 when he had smoked a scarcely believable 350 runs off just 138 deliveries for his club team, Nantwich. This was one of the highest individual scores ever recorded in any officially sanctioned limited-overs fixture.
- In April 2017, after he had led Lancashire, as a stand-in captain, to their first win of the season, he was awarded his county cap. In November 2017, he was appointed as club captain for the 2018 season.
- In a January 2020 BBL match, while batting for the Perth Scorchers, he was struck in the t*sticles thrice. On the 3rd occasion, he could be heard yelling ‘Oh no!’ over the stump microphone, leaving fans and commentators in splits.
- In March 2021, he had made his ODI debut for England in a bilateral series against India. He had made a solid first impression, averaging 72 runs per inning across the series.
- In July 2021, in the opening match of a bilateral series against Pakistan, he had scored 103 runs off just 43 balls, including 6 fours and 9 sixes. This was his maiden T20I century and he had become just the 3rd English batsman ever to achieve this feat. He had reached the 50-run mark off 17 balls and the 100-run mark off 42 balls. Both those feats were new records for an English batsman in T20Is.
