IPL 2026: Tilak Varma Equals Record For Fastest Hundred For MI With 45-ball Masterclass Vs GT
Narendra Modi Stadium: Tilak Varma etched his name into the record books by equalling the fastest century ever scored for the Mumbai Indians (MI), reaching his hundred in just 45 balls during Match 30 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 against the Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Monday.
With this effort, he matched the long-standing record of Sanath Jayasuriya, who had scored a 45-ball century against Chennai Super Kings at the Wankhede Stadium back in 2008.
The list of fastest hundreds for the Mumbai Indians now sees Tilak share the top spot with Jayasuriya (45 balls, 2008), followed by Cameron Green, who smashed a 47-ball ton against Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2023, and Suryakumar Yadav, who registered a 49-ball century against Gujarat Titans in the same season. Tilak’s knock also adds to MI’s success against GT, becoming their second centurion against the franchise after Suryakumar Yadav’s unbeaten 103 off 49 balls at the Wankhede Stadium in 2023.
