  • Sehwag is the third batsman after Brian Lara and Don Bradman to score two triple centuries.
  • Sehwag scored 257 runs on day three, making him the first batsman to score more than 250 runs in a day in a test match in over 50 years. There are only three other batsman that bettered this: Don Bradman twice (309) and (271), Wally Hammond (295), and Denis Compton (273).
  • Sehwag is also the first batsman to be involved in two double century stands, 213 for the first wicket and a 268 run partnership for the second wicket. This also the first time that a double century stand has occurred for the first and second wicket in an innings.
