Historic England Tour: 100-Run Stands Shatter Records
A breathtaking 107-run partnership for the third wicket on Day 3 of the series decider against England has etched a new milestone into cricketing history. This stand, achieved on August 2, 2025, marked the 18th century partnership during this tour.
This surpasses the previous record of 17 such partnerships, set during the 2003-04 Border-Gavaskar Trophy. It’s a testament to the batting prowess displayed throughout the series.
This remarkable feat underscores the dominance of Indian batsmen on this England tour. The sheer number of century partnerships highlights a consistent ability to build substantial innings, a crucial factor in securing Test match victories. The impact of this achievement resonates far beyond the immediate match result, influencing future strategies and analyses of Test cricket.
