Explanation

Virender Sehwag became the first Indian to score a triple century (300+ runs) in Test cricket. He achieved this feat twice - 319 against South Africa in Chennai (2008) and 309 against Sri Lanka in Mumbai (2009-10). Before him, no Indian batsman had reached the 300-run mark in a single Test innings. His aggressive batting style and high strike rate made these innings particularly memorable.
