Cooch Behar Trophy: Prakhar Chaturvedi etched his name into the annals of Indian cricket history by scoring the first quadruple century in the final of the Cooch Behar Trophy, India's premier multi-day tournament for Under-19 men against Mumbai.

Breaking Yuvraj Singh's record for the highest individual score in a Cooch Behar Trophy final, Chaturvedi had not only secured a victory for Karnataka on the basis of the first-innings lead but had also etched his name in the cricketing lore. His 404 not out now stood as the second-highest individual score in the tournament's history, a feat that demanded respect and admiration.

The previous highest score in a Cooch Behar Trophy final match was by Yuvraj, back in December 1999, when he scored 358 in Punjab's win (on first-innings lead) over a Bihar side that included, among others, MS Dhoni. Vijay Zol 451 not out for Maharashtra against Assam in the 2011-12 season remains the highest individual score in the tournament.
