England batter, Harry Brook has unlocked another milestone during the first Test against Pakistan in Multan by surpassing cricketing legends Sunil Gavaskar and Rahul Dravid with his fourth test hundred. During Day 3, Brooke slammed a century off just 118 balls, showcasing his explosive batting style with eight boundaries and a towering six that left everyone in awe.

Facing a delivery just outside off, Harry Brook cut the ball toward point and ran two runs to reach his sixth century. He removed his helmet and raised his arms in celebration as his teammates cheered—a proud moment for the 25-year-old, who excelled against Pakistan's bowlers.

Interestingly, Brook achieved this milestone in just six innings and has now joined the ranks of Mohinder Amarnath and Aravinda de Silva, who also notched four hundreds in the country but did so over significantly more innings.

Brook Joins Joe Root In A Test Full Of Achievements

Not just Brook but Joe Root has also left an indelible mark on this Test. His recent feat of becoming England's leading run-scorer in Tests, surpassing the legendary Sir Alistair Cook, is a testament to his contribution to the team. Root's 35th ton, which has also overtaken Sunil Gavaskar's record of 34 Test tons, is a remarkable achievement. He now stands second only to Sachin Tendulkar, who holds the record with 51 Test centuries. 

Brook and Root's combined excellence has been instrumental in helping England surpass 400. At the time of writing, England is at 485-3.
