Through his blazing knock, Anmolpreet has broken Yusuf Pathan's previous record of 40 balls for the fastest century hit by an Indian batter in List A cricket. Pathan, the former India all-rounder, had hit that whirlwind hundred for Baroda against Maharashtra in the 2009\/10 Vijay Hazare Trophy season.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Only Australia\u2019s Jake Fraser-McGurk (29 balls) and South Africa\u2019s AB de Villiers (31) have hit faster List A hundred than Anmolpreet in the world. De Villiers still holds the record for the fastest ODI century by smashing 149 off 44 balls for South Africa against West Indies in Johannesburg in January 2015.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
At the Narendra Modi Stadium \u2018A\u2019 ground, Anmolpreet came out to bat at number three after the fall of Punjab captain Abhishek Sharma in the second over. From there, the right-handed batter took all bowlers to the cleaners by hitting 12 fours and nine sixes to be unbeaten on 115 off 45 balls, as Punjab chased down 165 in just 12.5 overs and clinched a nine-wicket win.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Wicketkeeper-batter Prabhsimran Singh, Anmolpreet\u2019s cousin, was the other unbeaten batter with 35 not out off 25 balls as the duo shared an unbeaten 153-run partnership for the second wicket. Anmolpreet was a member of the India U19 team becoming runners-up in the 2016 Men\u2019s U19 World Cup in Bangladesh.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
