T20 is one of the best formats of cricket, in which it brings the batsman to perform his best. The batsman should score as many runs as possible in the crease and do the fifties and hundreds to show his performance and efficiency and make his team win. In the T20 cricket, it will be tough to hit hundreds when compared to the fifties as it is limited to 20 overs. But even though there are batters who scored centuries in T20, some of them are scored in significantly fewer balls. Let’s see the batsman who scored the fastest hundreds in T20.
