Karun Nair became the second Indian to score a triple Test century after Virender Sehwag, with an unbeaten 303 against England in the fifth Test. It helped in putting up the highest Test total by India at 759 for seven. He also happened to score this with his maiden century which added another feather to the cap. India won the match by an innings and 75 runs and Nair was awarded the Man-of-the-Match trophy.

Virender Sehwag himself expressed his joy in welcoming Nair to the '300-runs club' where he was the only Indian batsman who had achieved this feat.
