While head: Cricket News & Match Updates

New Zealand Cricket: New Zealand batter Chad Bowes has gone past Travis Head and Narayan Jagadeesan to smash the fastest double century in men's List A. Playing for Canterbury against Otago in the Ford Trophy on Wednesday, Bowes brought up his double ton in 103 deliveries before eventually falling for 205 off 110 balls.

The previous record for fastest double century in men’s List A cricket was jointly held by Head and Jagadeesan, who achieved the feat in 114 balls. "It might sink in over the next day or two, but obviously a great day here at Hagley and a good occasion to do something special. These things happen naturally, organically. You don't plan for it or try to do it, so I'm glad it was my day," said Bowes in a New Zealand Cricket (NZC) video.

While Head reached the landmark for South Australia against Queensland in the 2021/22 Marsh Cup, Jagadeesan did so during his record-breaking 277 for Tamil Nadu against Arunachal Pradesh in the 2022/23 Vijay Hazare Trophy.   Read More...
