England's first triple century in Test cricket since nineteen ninety.
On the fourth day of the opening match against Pakistan
and Moultan, the terrorists declared for declared at eight hundred

(00:47):
and twenty three for seven. Ridiculous. Yeah, I'll say that
again because it doesn't sound believable. Three yep, eight twenty
three for only seven. It's the fourth highest total in
the format. So they said Pakistan back. You got to remember,
I think Pakistan declared for around six hundred or something
along those lines. So before so Pakistan got sent into

(01:10):
bat yesterday at the back ended the one hundred and
fifty two for six at stumps and they're still trailing
by one hundred and fifteen, so England almost going to
win this. I know Pakistan could get make up that
one hundred and fifteen only four wickets left in the
in the adding, so it's yeah. I thought this was
going to be the unwinnable Test match. They just shook
hands on day three, but incredible stuff broke just on him.

(01:33):
He finished on three hundred and seventeen. He was involved
in a world record four hundred and fifty four run stand, yes,
four hundred and fifty four runs for the fourth wicket
with Joe Route, who was also scored a boatload of runs.
He scored two hundred and sixty two. Other Englishman though
they scored triple centuries Andy Sanham, Wally Hammond, Len Hutton,
John Edrich and Graham Gooch they're not playing this Test,

happened with the last well since nineteen ninety. He was
last to golf. Now and our boy Fox eat Ryan Fox.
