All the statistical highlights from yet another day dominated by Australia in Brisbane:

Warner-Burns duo grinds at Gabba again:

3 – David Warner and Joe Burns shared their 2nd double century opening stand in Test cricket; both coming at the Gabba in Brisbane. They are only the 3rd opening pair with two 200-run stands in Tests at a venue. Gordon Greenidge and Desmond Haynes had partnerships of 296 and 298 in Antigua while Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir shared 218 and 233 at the Green Park Stadium in Kanpur.


3 – Warner-Burns duo became only the 3rd Australian pair with multiple double century partnerships at a venue. Michael Clarke shared two 200-run stands with Mike Hussey at the Gabba and also two such partnerships with Ricky Ponting at the Adelaide Oval.


Warner equals Hayden:

40 – Number of centuries for David Warner in International cricket; the joint 2nd most by a player for Australia. Ricky Ponting has 70 International tons for the Aussies while Matthew Hayden also struck 40 tons.


A year to remember for Warner:

1 – David Warner became the first player from Australia to score a century in all three formats of international cricket. Three players before Warner have scored a T20I ton for Australia but none of them went on to score a hundred in Test cricket in the same calendar year.


Warner’s happy hunting ground:

1085 – David Warner has scored 1085 runs in first-class matches at the Gabba in Brisbane. This is the first venue where Warner amassed 1000 FC runs. He achieved the milestone in 18 innings with six hundreds and a fifty.


7013 – Runs Warner aggregated in International cricket on Australian soil. He is the 8th player to score 7000 International runs in Australia. Warner’s average of 53.12 at end of day 2 is the highest among those eight players.


Yasir concedes 100 in Australia yet again:

5/6 – Yasir Shah now has conceded 100+ runs in a Test innings five times in six innings he bowled on Australian soil. The only time he did not concede was during the 2nd innings of the 2016/17 day-night Test in Brisbane. Yasir bowled only 10 overs in that innings which was declared by the Aussies after playing 39 overs.
