The first triple century in tests was the 325 scored by Andy Sandham in April 1930. Sandham shared stands of 173 with George Gunn (85) for the first wicket, 148 with Bob Wyatt (58) for the second wicket, and 249 with Leslie Ames (149) for the fourth wicket, on the way to an England total of 849. Sandham was 39 years and 275 days old, and playing his last Test match: he is Test cricket's oldest triple-centurion. However, Andy Sandham's score was in a timeless test, meaning Sandham had as much time as he wanted to score. He didn't have to take any risks to score quickly, and there would be no reason for a declaration, meaning there was no pressure on him to give his wicket away. For this reason some people think the first "real" test 300 was Don Bradman's first triple century, and his highest score of 334 in July 1930. Bradman came in to bat after Australia had lost Archie Jackson off the eleventh ball of the match. He shared stands of 192 with Bill Woodfull (50) for the second wicket and 229 with Alan Kippax (77) for the third wicket, and helped Australia to a total of 566. Bradman was 309* at the close of the first day's play, making it the only instance in Tests of a batsman scoring 300 in a day. Bradman's 200 in 214 minutes is still the fastest Test double century.
Hope this helps!

Vijay Hazare was the first to score a triple century in Tests. Besides he was the only Indian to have scored two triple centuries. The only other Indian to have scored a triple century in Test is Virender Sehwag.
