M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru became a venue for tumbling records tumbled as Narayan Jagadesan set the stage on fire in Tamil Nadu’s Vijay Hazare Trophy 2022 match against Arunachal Pradesh. N Jagadeesan managed to break Rohit Sharma’s record for the highest score by a batter in List A cricket.

N Jagadeesan went past Rohit Sharma’s tally of 264 from 2014 (against Sri Lanka at the Eden Gardens) in the 41st over of Tamil Nadu’s Elite Group C match of Vijay Hazare Trophy. By then, Jagadeesan had smashed 15 sixes and 25 boundaries. Soon after, he broke the world record held by England batter Alistair Brown for the highest score in List A cricket (50-over format) – 268.

N Jagadeesan was eventually dismissed after scoring 277 runs off 141 balls after 25 boundaries and 15 sixes in the 42nd over by Chetan Anand. Jagadeesan had the opportunity to become the first man in the history of the sport to get to a triple century in List A cricket but he missed out on the opportunity.

Tamil Nadu's N. Jagadeesan becomes first man to score five List A centuries on the trot. He reaches 200 with a massive six. Just toying with the Arunachal bowlers now. All sorts of records broken @sportstarweb #VijayHazareTrophy pic.twitter.com/GTfmkxbPPL

For 20 years I have been looking at Ali Brown's 268 at the top of the list and saying "some day, some day".

Shikhar Dhawan made 248 and Rohit Sharma 264, but 268 stayed.

Then came N Jagadeesan.

Jagadeesan, who was one of the few names released by Chennai Super Kings ahead of the IPL 2023 mini-auction, was part of multiple world records during the stunning run-fest in Bengaluru on November 21. Jagadeesan had set a new world record in List A cricket for the greatest number of successive centuries – 5, going past Sri Lanka’s Kumar Sangakkara, South Africa’s Alviro Petersen, and Karnataka’s Devdutt Padikkal.
