England Test captain Ben Stokes has broken the world record for smashing most sixes in Test cricket history.
With his first six in England's second innings against New Zealand in the first Test, Stokes took his tally of sixes in Test cricket to 108.
He overtook former New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum, who held the previous record with 107 sixes.
Stokes smashed another six in the innings, and now tops the list with 109 sixes to his name in 164 innings so far.
In 90 Test matches, Stokes scored a total of 5,652 runs at an average of 36.00 with 109 sixes and 12 centuries and 28 fifties.
