  5. Sadly, though Imran Butt went on to a double-hundred, Lahore Blues did not achieve a third century in their innings, so Lahore Blues v Multan finished with a mere eight hundreds, one short of equalling the first-class record. espncricinfo.com/series/quaid-
    But Multan's six hundreds in an innings earlier in the match have equalled Holkar's long-standing record of six v Mysore in 1945/46.

  6. Multan have equalled a world record set by Holkar in March 1946 by scoring six centuries in their innings of 718-8 declared v Lahore Blues in the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy. stats.acscricket.com/Records/F

    Lahore have scored two more hundreds in their reply, so with a day to go there's a chance of equalling or surpassing the record of nine centuries in a match. stats.acscricket.com/Records/F

  24. In the current Test at Bengaluru, India scored 46 in their first innings and 462 in their second. The only other instance of a Test team scoring at least ten times as much in one innings as the other was in 1924, when South Africa were all out for 30 v England at Birmingham then made 390 following on - a ratio of 1:13. They still lost by an innings...
    A once-in-a-century event!
