ODI Fastest Century: Neither Rohit-Virat nor Gill-Ishan, this Indian player has the fastest ODI century; See top 10 list
Indian batsmen have created havoc in the second ODI match being played between India and Afghanistan on the ground of Lucknow. Team India’s ‘Prince’ Shubman Gill has smashed the Afghan bowlers and scored a brilliant century in just 77 balls. At the same time, from the other end, Ishan Kishan adopted a more aggressive approach and stole the show by completing his century in just 71 balls.
Seeing this explosive innings of Shubman and Ishaan, this question would be floating in the minds of many cricket fans that who holds the record of scoring the fastest century for India in ODI cricket? The name of Virat Kohli must be coming to the mind of many people immediately. Of course, if we talk about only men’s cricket, then ‘King Kohli’ is still the number-1 batsman to score the fastest ODI century for India, the special thing is that Virat Kohli comes in this top-5 list twice. He also scored a stormy century in just 61 balls during the Nagpur ODI in the same 2013 series. But… do you know that when it comes to the entire Indian cricket (both men and women), this great record is no longer with Virat.
