Youngest Player to Score Twin Centuries in a Single TestRemembering Philip Joel Hughes and Some Highlights of His Career 2

The southpaw wrote his name in the history books when he smashed twin centuries in only his 2nd Test and became the youngest to score two centuries in a Test. He looked in prolific touch as the bowlers kept on bowling to his strengths and he kept on putting them to the sword. It was an exceptional batting display by the southpaw which saw him already making a name for himself in the international circuit. He was only 20 years and 96 days when he achieved the feat.
