Tilak\u2019s blistering knock featured 14 fours and 10 towering sixes as he powered Hyderabad to a commanding total. His innings surpassed Shreyas Iyer\u2019s previous record of 147 as the best T20 score by an Indian.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Batting at No. 3, Tilak reached his half-century in 28 balls and took only 51 deliveries to bring up his century. The hundred marked the third time in just 10 days that he crossed the three-figure mark in the shortest format.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Tilak\u2019s red-hot form began during India\u2019s recent T20I tour of South Africa, where he smashed back-to-back hundreds in Centurion and Johannesburg to lead India to a 3-1 series victory. By doing so, he became only the second Indian batter after Sanju Samson to score consecutive T20I centuries.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
With this latest milestone, Tilak\u2019s T20 career tally now stands at over 2950 runs in 90 innings, including four centuries. His performances have been marked by his ability to anchor innings as well as accelerate at will, making him a vital cog in both domestic and international setups.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
