Tagenerin Chandrapaul’s innings, which scored 207 runs off 467 balls, consisted of 16 fours and 3 sixes.
West Indies cricketer Tagnarin Chandrapaul made history on Monday by scoring his maiden Test century in the first match against Zimbabwe. Tagenerin reached the three-figure mark on Day 3 of the tournament in Bulawayo. The 26-year-old didn’t stop there, converting his unbeaten century into an unbeaten double-century as West Indies’ first innings score of 447/6 was decided to end the innings. With the double century, Tagenerin became the second father-son duo to score a double century in Test cricket, joining his father Shivanarin Chandrapaul.
Tagenerin’s innings featured 16 fours and 3 sixes as he scored 207 runs off 467 balls and finished with a strike rate of 44.32. No other father-son duo has scored double centuries in Test cricket.
