Before Clive Madande, the record for the most byes conceded in a Test innings was held by England wicketkeeper Les Ames. In a 1934 Test match against Australia at The Oval, Ames gave away 37 byes out of 327.

Lesly Ames considered one of Finest keeper of eng from yester year but not everytime its poor keeping many times

Poor bowling was prime reason or uneven bounce makes it very difficult for keeper to do great job.
