5 players with most double centuries in Test cricket

#2 Kumar Sangakkara (11)

A modern-day legend

The second Sri Lankan player to feature on this list, Kumar Sangakkara was one of the most technically gifted batsmen in the history of the game.

In 134 Tests, Sangakkara scored 12400 runs with 38 hundreds and 52 fifties. He converted 11 of those into double hundreds, making him the only cricketer after Sir Don Bradman to have scored more than 10 double hundreds in Tests.

Sangakkara also has three scores in the 190s, including a 199*, showing how close he came to beating Bradman's record. He is also third on the list of most international hundreds, only behind Sachin Tendulkar and Ricky Ponting.
