Karun Nair enters record books with triple ton
Karun Nair set record books on fire with his triple century from 381 balls which was laced with 32 boundaries and four sixes.

ecember 19, 2016 5:28 pmKarun Nair broke numerous records and created multiple milestones in just his third Test match when he scored a triple century against England in Chennai on the fourth day of the fifth Test. With his unbeaten 303 in the first innings from 381 balls, Nair has become the third highest Indian Test scorer.
As he smashed away a cut shot to Adil Rashid to bring up a boundary after beating Alastair Cook, the new-comer to the setup, had added his name to record books comprising not just Indian players but overall in history of cricket.
These are some of the records he created on the way to his triple century.
