He ended the series with 340 runs and held a strike rate of 103.65. This makes him the first player in the world to score over 300 runs in a Youth Test series at a 100+ strike rate. The record for the best strike rate in a Youth Test series was previously held by Brendon McCullum, who scored 455 runs at a strike rate of 95.58 in the 2000/01 series against South Africa U19.
