India wicketkeeper batter Rishabh Pant etched his name in history books as he scored his second century of the ongoing Test match against England at Headingley, Leeds. 

The swashbuckling batter became just the second wicketkeeper batter in the history of the game to score twin centuries in a Test match.

He joined Zimbabwe’s Andy Flower in an elite list, who achieved the feat back in 2001 vs South Africa in Harare. 

Pant also became the seventh Indian to achieve the feat and the first wicketkeeper. 

Earlier, he scored a magnificent 134 in the first innings and registered his seventh Test hundred, becoming the India wicketkeeper with the most centuries in Test cricket. 

Following his hundred in the second innings, Pant now has eight centuries in the longest format.
