5 fastest Triple Centuries in Test Cricket

#2 Matthew Hayden – 362 balls, 2003, Perth

Matthew Hayden broke Brian Lara’s then standing record in Grand fashion

Matthew Hayden briefly held the record for the highest individual score in Test cricket scoring 380 in just 437 balls against Zimbabwe in Perth. His innings sparkled with 38 fours and 11 sixes as Australia piled on a colossal 735 for 6 declared against a hapless Zimbabwe attack. Adam Gilchrist scored a blistering century too at the other end. Australia eventually won the match by an innings and 175 runs. The completed Hayden innings boasted of a strike-rate of 86.95.

It was the fastest triple ton at that time before Sehwag broke it by a country mile.
