On this day (March 29) in 2004, Virender Sehwag became the first Indian to score a triple hundred in Test cricket. The explosive Indian opener achieved the feat against Pakistan. Sehwag scored 309 runs, his highest score at that time, which he co-incidentally surpassed on the same day, four years later by scoring 319 against South Africa.

29th March- a special date for me. Had the privilege and honour of becoming the first Indian to score a triple hundred in Test cricket. Icing in the cake was to score against Pakistan in Multan.
