An inspired Harry Brook scored the fastest double hundred in ODI history as England piled up 429-4 against Sri Lanka in the tri-series in Rawalpindi on Thursday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The batsman\u2019s 116-ball 202 also made him the first Englishman to hit a double century in a one-day international.<\/p>\n

The captain clobbered 10 sixes and 21 fours as England posted a first 400-plus ODI total in Pakistan.<\/p>\n

He reached 200 in 114 balls, beating the previous fastest double century in ODIs, by Shubman Gill (117 balls) for India against West Indies last month.<\/p>\n

Brook was joined in the fireworks by Joe Root, who scored a 66-ball 69 and became the first England batter to complete 8,000 runs, in his 197th one-day international.<\/p>\n

Brook was dismissed off the final delivery, caught off pacer Janith Liyanage, but not before helping England add 156 runs in the last 10 overs.<\/p>\n

Opener Tom Banton set the tone with a 51-ball 50 and Will Jacks was 66 not out with three sixes and eight fours.<\/p>\n

But the day belonged to history-maker Brook, who added 185 runs off just 79 balls with Jacks for the fourth wicket.<\/p>\n

He had set up the innings with a third-wicket stand of 159 with Root.<\/p>\n

The previous highest ODI total at a Pakistan venue was 375-3 for the hosts against Zimbabwe in Lahore in 2015.<\/p>\n
