Tezzbuzz Desk– Maz Sadakat batted brilliantly while playing for Jamaica Kingsmen against Antigua and Barbuda Falcons in the final match of the Caribbean Premier League 2026. This 21 year old Pakistani batsman not only got the team out of a difficult situation with his explosive innings, but also made a special record in the history of CPL. Maz Sadaqat has become the first batsman to score a century in the CPL final. Jamaica Kingsmen decided to bat first in the final match. The team did not have a good start and opener Kirk McKenzie returned to the pavilion without opening the account. After this, Maaz Sadaqat took charge of one end and took the team's score forward by scoring runs rapidly. He batted aggressively and maintained constant pressure on the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons bowlers.
Maaz hit more sixes than fours during his innings. He scored 114 runs facing 58 balls, which included 9 sixes and 8 fours. During this, he completed his century in just 49 balls. Thanks to his innings, Jamaica Kingsmen scored 170 runs after losing 9 wickets in 20 overs in a big match like the final. This is the second century of Maaz Sadakat in his CPL and T20 career. The special thing is that in the current CPL season itself, he had earlier scored a century in the eliminator match also. In that match, Maaz played an innings of 112 runs, completing his century in 44 balls. With this century, he made the record of the youngest batsman to score a century in CPL.
The 114 runs scored in the final also became the highest score of Maaz Sadaqat's T20 career. After scoring 112 runs in the eliminator, he played an even bigger inning in the final. At the age of just 21, scoring centuries in two consecutive important matches shows his current form. Maaz Sadaqat's dominance was clearly visible throughout the entire innings of Jamaica Kingsmen. Apart from him, only Sam Ayub from the team could reach double figures. Sam Ayub scored 29 runs and was the second highest scorer of the team. The rest of the batsmen failed to play big innings. In such a situation, it can be said that Jamaica Kingsmen made a challenging score of 170 runs in the final mainly on the strength of their Pakistani batsmen. Maaz Sadaqat's inning of 114 runs was the biggest feature of this match. His innings also made him the first batsman to score a century in the CPL final.
