    100 - Azhar Ali is one of only two batsmen (Kane Williamson) to score a Test century in each of the last 8 calendar years (2014-2021). Ton. #ZIMvPAK

    10 - @BLACKCAPS bowler Ajaz Patel becomes just the third bowler in the history of men's Test cricket to take all 10 wickets in an innings (Jim Laker in 1956 and Anil Kumble in 1999). Terrific.

    6 - @JofraArcher has struck six 6s at the 'death' in the IPL this season (overs 17-20); no batsman has recorded more during that period of matches. Finisher. #IPL2020
