David Warner continues to re-write the records books, this time blasting the second fastest ever half-century in the third Test against Pakistan.
Warner smashed three sixes and seven fours in a 23-ball half-century on Friday, falling two balls shy of beating Misbah-ul-Huq's record set in 2014-15.
His rapid fire innings
was on track to threaten Brendon McCullum's record of fastest century, however the 30-year-old was eventually bowled by Wahab Riaz for 55.
Warner's latest achievement comes after becoming just the fifth batsman in Test history to hit a century before lunch in his first innings knock at the SCG.
His ball-by-ball scoring went as follows: 4....11..66441.1.4444.6.
