Sahil Chauhan smashes fastest T20I hundred off 27 balls against Cyprus [Update on post#16]

[Abdullah719]

Previous quickest was off 45 balls (Levi). Rahul and du Plessis have hit hundreds off 46 balls.

Miller hit 5 sixes in an over too but the last ball only got him a single.

Bangladesh being smashed down to reality.

So Miller’s ton came 10 balls quicker than the second-quickest.

Madness.

This is really embarrassing!

Wouldn't have happened if Mustafizur Rahmans offcutters were there. Shakib bowled well and with Fizz, they'd have gotten SA for under 130 on that wicket.

I stopped watching when Amla got out and never could I have imagined that Miller would get a ton after that!

 

[big_gamer007]

lol, BD are still Minnows outside their home at their home they are good side but outside they are pretty poor.. Hopefully they learn from this tour and improve in future but chances seem slim..

 

[Ab Fan]

5 sixes in 5 balls. LOL.

 

[Messiah]

Doesn't count. Anyone can hit centuries against bangla minnows. Not a real record

 

[backfootpunch]

Bengali minnows - hilarious how their fans are so super confident that their minnow side can beat Pakistan home and away

 

[JustAnotherFan]

5 sixes in 5 balls. LOL.

I was backing him for a 6th six. After 3, I already wrote on facebook a well done 666666 and was waiting to post. Then had to edit it 666661 and say I jinxed it. Lol.

Miller does not connect every time . But when he does , it remains connected.

World record knock sees fastest-ever Men’s T20I century hit off just 27 balls

The record for the fastest-ever Men’s T20I century was broken on Monday when Sahil Chauhan of Estonia produced an outrageous knock against Cyprus.

The 32-year-old Chauhan hit 144* off just 41 deliveries to see his Estonia side chase down Cyrpus’ 191/7 in blistering fashion.

The Estonia number four hit 24 boundaries in his innings, including 18 maximums, scoring at a strike-rate of 351.21 as he decimated the Cyprus bowling attack.

And he brought up his century off just 27 balls, bettering the previous record, set by Namibia’s Jan Nicol Loftie-Eaton in February of this year, by a full six deliveries.

Chauhan’s 18 sixes is also a new Men’s T20I record for a single innings in the format. Afghanistan’s Hazratullah Zazai and New Zealand’s Finn Allen had previously tied the record with 16 apiece.

Estonia's Sahil Chauhan just scored the fastest T20I ton!

Estonia now lead the six-match series in Cyrpus 2-0, having chased down a target of 196 in the opening match of Monday’s double-header with three balls and five wickets remaining.

However, on that against Chauhan could not have had a more contrasting impact with the bat, dismissed for a golden duck.

The series continues with another double-header on Tuesday 18 June in Episkopi.

Didn't know Estonia had a cricket team.

Well done.

Not sure why these games have international statuses.
