Indian Batters Shatter World Records in Rain-Hit Test Against Bangladesh
Indian batters rewrote the record books with blazing performances to notch the fastest team centuries in Test cricket history against Bangladesh. Key contributions came from Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, KL Rahul, and Virat Kohli. India declared at 285 for nine in just 34.4 overs despite rain delays.
In a stunning display of aggressive batting, Indian cricketers dismantled several world records during the fourth day of a rain-affected Test match against Bangladesh on Monday.
Yashasvi Jaiswal set the tone with a lightning-fast 50 off 31 balls, while captains Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul also contributed to India's rapid scoring. Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli later battered the Bangladeshi bowlers, pushing the team to a score of 285 for nine in just 34.4 overs.
The team's relentless approach shattered England's and Australia's records for the fastest team 50, 100, and 200 in Test cricket history. Despite only 35 overs being possible over the first three days due to persistent rain, India managed to deliver a historic performance.
