India’s opening batsman Ishan Kishan today broke the world record held earlier by West Indies great Chris Gayle, for hitting the fastest double hundred in 50-over cricket in the 3rd ODI vs Bangladesh at Chattogram. Gayle had taken 138 balls to score his double century against Zimbabwe in the 2015 ICC World Cup. Kishan smashed the record by reaching the 200 mark in just 126 balls.
Kishan, who was brought in for the last match of the series after captain Rohit Sharma got injured, 9 sixes and 23 boundaries on his way to the record. He had completed his century in just 85 balls.
Ishan is now only the seventh batter in ODIs to score a double century and fourth from India after Sachin Tendulkar, Rohit Sharma and Virender Sehwag.
