In the process, Chauhan broke the record previously held by Namibia\u2019s Jan-Nicol Loftie Eaton, who got to the three-figure mark off just 33 balls in February this year.<p>Chauhan, 32, hit a blistering 144 not out off just 41 deliveries and propelled Estonia to chase down Cyprus\u2019 191\/7 in blazing fashion after the side quickly lost openers. The number four batter hit 24 boundaries in his innings, including 18 maximums, scoring at an astonishing strike-rate of 351.21 as he single-handedly decimated the Cyprus bowling attack.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>He brought up his century off just 27 balls, bettering the previous record held by Loftie Eaton. Chauhan\u2019s 18 sixes is also a new Men\u2019s T20I record for a single innings in the format, going past Afghanistan\u2019s Hazratullah Zazai and New Zealand\u2019s Finn Allen, who previously had the record with 16 maximums each.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Estonia now lead the six-match series in Cyprus 2-0, having chased down a target of 196 in the opening match of Monday\u2019s double-header with three balls and five wickets remaining.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>However, on that occasion, Chauhan could not have had a more contrasting impact with the bat, dismissed for a golden duck. The series continues with another double-header on Tuesday in Episkopi.<\/p>\r\n\r\n",
