दो 150 से ज़्यादा स्कोर और छह डक: इंग्लैंड की उलझन भरी पहली पारी

Home » News » दो 150 से ज़्यादा स्कोर और छह डक: इंग्लैंड की उलझन भरी पहली पारी

England's topsy-turvy first innings

England's 407 is the lowest ever all-out innings total to feature two 150-plus scores (184* by Jamie Smith and 158 by Harry Brook). This breaks the previous record of 414 by West Indies against Australia at Georgetown in 1968.

6 ducks by England is their most in a Test innings, surpassing five each against West Indies at Bridgetown in 1954 and later at Headingley in 1976; against Australia at The Oval in 1956, and against New Zealand in Auckland in 2018.

Brook and Smith sizzle amidst the chaos

184 scored by Jamie Smith is the highest score by an England wicketkeeper in Tests, going past Alec Stewart's 173 at Auckland in 1997. It is also the second-highest score for any keeper in Tests against India, behind Andy Flower's 232 in Nagpur in 2000.

80 Harry Brook Pakistan Rawalpindi, 2022

85 Ben Stokes New Zealand Lord's, 2015

44 innings taken by Harry Brook to get to his ninth Test hundred; only Denis Compton (37) and Herbert Sutcliffe (43) got there in fewer innings for England.

55.56% – Brook has now converted five of his nine Test hundreds into a 150-plus score. His conversion rate of 100s to 150-plus scores is only matched by Ted Dexter and bettered by Dennis Amiss (72.73% – 8 out of 11) among England batters with a minimum of nine Test tons.

303 runs added by Brook and Smith was just the third 300-plus stand for the sixth wicket or lower for England in Tests after 399 between Ben Stokes and Jonny Bairstow (vs SA, Cape Town, 2016) and 332 between Jonathan Trott and Stuart Broad (vs PAK, Lord's, 2010).
