Rishabh Pant Sets New Test Cricket Record for Most Sixes
Indian wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant has become the fastest player to hit 100 sixes in Test cricket history. He achieved this milestone during the first Test against Sri Lanka in Galle, hitting a six off bowler Lahiru Kumara. Pant broke Adam Gilchrist's previous record for the quickest to reach 100 Test sixes. He is also the first Indian cricketer to achieve 100 sixes in the Test format.
