India scripted history by becoming the first team ever to slam 100 sixes in Test cricket in a calendar year.

This was the first time in the 147-year history of Test cricket that any team was able to achieve to reach this milestone. Earlier, the record for hitting the highest number of sixes in a calendar year belonged to England who slammed 89 sixes in 2022. Yashasvi Jaiswal has slammed 29 sixes in Test this year while Shubman Gill has scored 16 sixes for India.
