EXPLAINED: Yorkshire star finlay bean shatters marcus trescothick record with incredible 441 - The Real Truth

Yorkshire prospect Finlay Bean has broken a 25-year-old record held by former England opener Marcus Trescothick.

Bean struck a stunning 441 runs from 518 balls in a Second XI Championship against Nottinghamshire, before getting bowled by leg-spinner Calvin Harrison. His innings included 52 fours and three sixes and lasted 712 minutes, setting a new record for the highest individual score in Second XI Championship history.

Trescothick, who played 76 Test matches and 123 ODIs during his career and now works as England's batting coach, previously held the record. Back in 1997, he scored 322 for Somerset's Second XI in a game against Warwickshire.
