India’s interim captain Suryakumar Yadav joins the elite list of most T20I centuries during the 3rd T20 of India’s tour of South Africa 2023 at Johannesburg.
Getting invited to bat first, India lost their one opener and top-order batter early. Surya came at no.3 and started his innings nicely and slowly, however, he started his naturally aggressive game without wasting much time and smashed 8 exciting sixes and 7 fours en route to his 56 balls hundred. His 4 Centuries is also the highest by any player at no 3 or lower position. Surya is the fastest batter to achieve the feat of 4 hundred in T20 internationals, reaching there in just 57 innings.
Only Rohit Sharma and Glenn Maxwell have the same number of centuries in the shortest format of the game at the highest level. The Mumbai batter’s tremendous form in t20s will probably see him scoring a few more tons in coming times.
