Fastest T20 cricket century

Sahil Chauhan's remarkable achievement in T20 cricket:

Sahil Chauhan, representing Estonia, made headlines by smashing the fastest century in T20 cricket history, achieving the milestone in just 27 balls. This incredible feat surpassed the previous record set by Chris Gayle in the IPL 2013, where he scored a century off 30 balls. Chauhan's century is not only the fastest in T20 cricket overall but also in T20 Internationals, eclipsing the previous international record held by Jan-Nicole Loftie-Eaton of Namibia, who scored a century in 33 balls against Nepal.

Chauhan's innings was an exhibition of power-hitting, as he remained unbeaten on 144 runs off just 41 deliveries. During his innings, he smashed a record-breaking 18 sixes, setting a new benchmark for the most sixes hit in a T20I innings. His blitzkrieg helped Estonia successfully chase down a target of 191 runs in less than 13 overs, securing a convincing six-wicket victory over Cyprus.

This performance not only underscores Chauhan's batting prowess but also marks a significant achievement for Estonian cricket, putting the nation on the global T20 cricket map with an unforgettable display of batting excellence.
