5 ODI records that will remain unbroken for a long time because of the rule changes

#4 Most runs scored off the last 10 overs

The South Africa – West Indies clash during the WC broke many records

AB de Villers' carnage against the Windies in the 2015 World Cup ensured that the most runs were scored off the last ten overs in ODI history. South Africa's score stood at a modest 245 after the 40th over. But the last 10 overs yielded an incredible 163 runs as they ended with a mammoth 408 for 5.

Not a single bowler was spared. Rossouw and de Villiers matched each other stroke for stroke as they together added 134 in just 12.3 overs. The South African innings highlighted a pattern that was emerging as batting teams started to look to keep wickets in hand in the middle overs and prepare for the onslaught at the end.

With five overs of the batting powerplay in the end and the last ten overs to follow, teams started to look to double the runs they had scored till then. That might be impossible now with the batting powerplay having been done away with. Also, with five fielders being allowed outside the 30-yard circle for the last ten overs now, this record of 163 runs scored off the last 60 balls might be very difficult to break now.
