Urvil Patel sets record for fastest T20 century by an Indian with 28-ball ton

Gujarat batter Urvil Patel set a new record for the fastest T20 century by an Indian, scoring 100 runs in just 28 balls against Tripura. This achievement surpasses Rishabh Pant's previous record of 32 balls. Despite his impressive performance, Urvil went unsold in the IPL 2025 auction, with no franchises bidding for him. He aims to showcase his skills in the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. Urvil is now second on the global list for the fastest T20 century, behind Estonia's Sahil Chauhan, who scored a 27-ball ton. He remains eligible for an IPL contract as an injury replacement.
