England captain Harry Brook scored the fastest double century in one-day international cricket history during the tri-series match against Sri Lanka in Rawalpindi. The 27-year-old reached 200 runs off 114 balls, beating the record of 117 balls held by India's Shubman Gill.

With this innings, Brook became the first English player to reach 200 in the format. He also surpassed 182, the highest individual score by an England player in one-day matches, previously held by Ben Stokes.

Brook finished on 202 from 116 balls, striking 21 fours and 10 sixes. He was caught by Sahan Arachchige off Janith Liyanage's bowling on the last ball of the innings. The crowd applauded him for a long time.

Joe Root also gave the team strong support. Root scored 69 from 66 balls, the second-highest score for England that day.
