- 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.
