Urvil Patel, a 26-year-old wicketkeeper-batter from Gujarat, has made history by achieving the fastest T20 century by an Indian in just 28 balls. He broke Rishabh Pant's previous record of 32 balls, set in 2018.

Gujarat wicketkeeper-batter Urvil Patel smashed the fastest T20 century hit by an Indian batter by smacking a 28-ball hundred in his side's 8-wicket win against Tripura ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy league stage at the Emerald Heights International School Ground in Indore.

Known for his explosive batting, Rishabh Pant created history by becoming the most expensive player in IPL history. After parting ways with Delhi Capitals, Pant was snapped up by the Lucknow Super Giants for a record Rs 27 crore. Speculation is rife that the left-hander might take over as LSG's captain.

Lucknow Super Giants splurged Rs 27 crore for Rishabh Pant at the IPL auction making him the most expensive ever in the history of the cash-rich league. However, an Indian player who went unsold at the auction has broken Pant's record now to smash fastest T20 century.

Lucknow Super Giants have paid a record sum for wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant in the IPL auction in Jeddah but Mitchell Starc's price has halved in a year.
