Chris Gayle slams 30-Ball Ton, fastest in History

Benguluru: Explosive opener Chris Gayle slammed the fastest century in cricket history, reaching the triple figure in just 30 balls during the RCB-PWI IPL clash on Today. Though, the milestone came in an IPL clash, and not in any international tie, Gayle's firework will be remembered by cricket buffs for long. The southpaw pulverised the Pune bowling and hit 16 sixes and 11 Fours, during the process, to send the crowd in delirium. This was Gayle's second ton in his IPL career. Pakistan's flamboyant batsman Shahid Afridi holds the record of fastest century in ODI (37 balls) while, Viv Richards is credited for scoring fastest ton (56 balls) in Test history. South African Richard RE Levi holds the record for fastest international T20 hundred. Levi had slammed 45-ball century against New Zealand in 2011 at Hamilton.
