Brook scores fastest double century in ODI history in rampant England's 429-4

Rawalpindi witnessed an extraordinary day as Harry Brook shattered the record for the fastest double century in One Day International history. The England opener blitzed 202 runs off just 116 balls, an astonishing feat that eclipsed the previous record set by Shubman Gill by four balls. Brook's century was nothing short of spectacular, featuring an astounding 10 sixes and 21 fours.

England amassed a colossal 429-4 in their chase, a first-ever 400-plus ODI total in Pakistan. Captain Harry Brook's record-breaking knock included 185 runs shared with Joe Root, contributing to a remarkable 156-run stand in the last 10 overs. Root, his England debutant teammate, also delivered a stellar knock of 69 balls, solidifying his position as the first England player to reach the 8,000-run milestone in one-day internationals.

Brook's innings saw a stellar partnership with Jacks, who contributed 66 not out, including three sixes and eight fours. The day was a triumph for Brook, who not only etched his name in the history books but also led his team to an overwhelming victory against Sri Lanka. The previous highest ODI total at a Pakistan venue was 375-3 set by Sri Lanka against Zimbabwe in Lahore back in 2015.
