Top 10 Fastest Century in T20 Cricket History

Fastest Century in T20 : We’ve seen how cricket has changed over the years: in the 1980s, 200 runs was a winning total in 60 overs; in the 1990s, 250–260 was a winning total in 50 overs; and today, more than 350 runs is not safe in one-day international cricket (ODI) and has been chased numerous times in the international format, even against the strongest bowling attack.

This occurs for a very straightforward reason: since the introduction of T20 cricket in 2006, the game’s structure has essentially changed. Batsmen are taking more hazardous and dangerous strokes because they aim to score as many runs as possible in fewer balls and in a shorter amount of time. The top ten offensive batsmen in T20 cricket who have hit the fastest century in T20 are displayed here.

Making a Century in T20 is a huge deal because there are only 120 balls to play in an innings by a team, and batters hardly manage to get mostly 45 to 55 balls. Hitting 100 runs in those minimal balls is a tremendous job for a batsman, and making a century in fewer balls is even more special for a batsman, and we will see the fastest Century in T20 Cricket history.
