Van Alen in 1965?
• Originally, two types of tiebreakers were introduced in the game by Van Alen. The one that would end after a maximum of 9 points was called the “X tiebreaker,” while the one with 12 points was called the “Y ” tiebreak. The 12-points tiebreak continues until one player or team wins by a margin of at least two points and with a minimum of 7 points. X and Y interestingly signify not the type of win, but the type of loss.

Tiebreaker. • Every player dreams of representing their nation, but as far as international
careers go, surely there are none more strange than X.• Uncapped for Argentina, X was selected for the first ever World Cup in 1930. After
missing the first game, he was selected for his debut as a replacement for the unfit first choice – and bagged a hat trick. He then scored 2 goals in the final group game to secure qualification to the semi finals (as there were less teams competing). He bagged another brace in the semi final, before netting a single goal in their unsuccessful final versus winners Uruguay.• After this tournament, X never played for Argentina again. This meant that in his
international career, he could boast having scored a hat trick on his debut, scoring in every game he played for the national side, a goals per game ratio of two (four games, eight goals), and being the top scorer at the first ever FIFA World Cup.

• Shahid Afridi was flown in to play for the Pakistan team from West Indies to Nairobi in 1996 and didn't have a proper bat. That's when Waqar Younis gave 'Young Afridi' X’s bat.

The record, broken later by Corey Anderson (36 balls), now belongs to South Africa's AB de Villiers (31 balls)
