First Time In 252 Years! India Batter Achieves Historic First-Class Record

Hyderabad batter Tanmay Agarwal shattered records by slamming a triple century in just 147 deliveries during the Ranji Trophy match against Arunachal Pradesh on Friday. Hyderabad ended up scoring 529 runs in just 48 overs for the loss of one wicket with Agarwal breaking a plethora of records with his impressive knock. This was the first time ever that a batter slammed a triple century in under 150 balls in a first-class cricket match. According to Wisden Almanack, the first 'first-class' cricket match was played in 1772 and as a result, this was the first time that this feat was achieved in around 252 years.
