Pope says 600 runs in a day within England's reach

Pope was one of three century-makers for the hosts as England won the second Test against the West Indies at Trent Bridge by 241 runs, with Harry Brook and Joe Root following him to three figures in a series-clinching success. Victory in Nottingham was also the first time England had passed 400 in both innings in the 147-year history of Test cricket. Pope was one of four batsmen to score a hundred when England piled up 506-4 on the first day against Pakistan at Rawalpindi in December 2022, despite facing a mere 75 overs.
