In ODI cricket, many times batsmen have scored centuries in very few balls while batting stormy. This record for India is in the name of Captain Virat Kohli. Virat hit a century in just 52 balls in the Jaipur ODI played against Australia in the year 2013.
In this match, Rohit Sharma also played an explosive innings of 141 off 123 balls. Due to the excellent batting of these two, India had achieved a huge target of 362 runs in just 43.3 overs.
Record list
The record of lowest ball century in ODIs is named after AB de Villiers of South Africa. He achieved this position in just 31 balls against the West Indies in 2015. Pakistan's explosive batsman, Shahid Afridi, held this record for nearly 18 years, who scored a century in 37 balls against Sri Lanka in 1996. This record was broken in 2014 by Corey Anderson of New Zealand with a century in 36 balls.
Who will break the record
India's current team captain Virat Kohli and opener Rohit Sharma have the ability to break this record. On the other hand, if big players like MS Dhoni and Hardik Pandya get more overs for batting, then they too can achieve this.
