England skipper Joe Root on Saturday became the first man to score a double century in his career's 100th Test match. The England skipper achieved the feat during Day 2 of the opening Test of the four-match series against India at the MA Chidambaram stadium in Chennai. Root, while batting on 196, danced down the track and launched India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin over long-on for a six to bring his double century. Root is also the first English cricketer to reach his double century with a six. In the process, Root also eclipsed Pakistan great Inzamam-ul-Haq's record of the highest score in the 100th Test. Inzamam had scored 184 runs against India during the Bengaluru Test in 2005. And, the England run-machine broke the 16-year-old record in style.
