Batter Harry Brook said he and Joe Root "didn't know" the long-standing England partnership record they broke during an astonishing fourth day of the first Test against Pakistan.
Brook's 317 was England's first score of 300 or more since Graham Gooch reached the landmark in 1990. It was also only the sixth triple hundred by an England batter. England's innings was only the third time in Test history two batters have scored 250 or more in the same innings. That was made more impressive by the fact, until being dismissed in the 286th over of the match, he had been on the field for all but eight deliveries.
