LONDON: Shardul Thakur matched Sir Don Bradman's record on Friday in the World Test Championship final against Australia as he became the third visiting batter with the most consecutive 50-plus scores at The Oval in Test format.
Shardul's counter-attacking 51(109) was his third consecutive 50-plus score at the Oval. In his last three matches from 2021-2023, the Indian allrounder has struck 57(36), 60(72) and 51(109).
Only two batters have managed to achieve this unique record before him. Sir Don Bradman scored three consecutive 50-plus scores from 1930-1934. While former Australian cricketer Allan Border achieved the same feat during 1985-1989. Agencies
