  • India batter Ishan Kishan hit the fastest double century in one-day international history by smashing a sublime 210 in victory over Bangladesh.
  • Kishan took just 126 balls to reach 200.
  • He was breaking the previous record for men's and women's cricket held by New Zealand's Amelia Kerr.
  • Kerr reached the mark off 134 balls against Ireland in 2018.
  • West Indies opener Chris Gayle held the previous men's record, taking 138 deliveries against Zimbabwe in 2015.
  • It is only the ninth time a batter has hit a double ton in men's ODIs, with Kishan's the joint-fifth highest score.
  • The 24-year-old is also the youngest man to achieve the feat.
