New Zealand cricketer Chad Bowes has smashed the record for the fastest ever double-century in the history of List A cricket. Bowes took just 103 deliveries to score his maiden double-ton in the format during a Ford Trophy clash between Canterbury and Otago. He thus broke the previous record of quickest List A double-century off 114 deliveries jointly held by India’s N Jagadeesan and Australian Travis Head.
Bowes belted 27 fours and seven sixes during his innings before being trapped LBW on 205 off 110 deliveries. Thanks to his record-breaking innings, Canterbury posted 343/9 from 50 overs. The next best score in their innings came from the bat of no.8 batter Zakary Foulkes who made an unbeaten 49 off 46.
