After facing Australia in the final of the ICC World Cup 2023, India continued its battle with the Men from Down Under on Thursday in the shortest format. This came four days after India had played Australia in the final. Josh Inglis, a wicketkeeper and batsman, showed off his skills in the first Twenty20 International of the five-match series. Inglis had just finished playing for Australia in their World Cup-winning cricket team against India. The Australian wicketkeeper-batter delivered a spectacular performance while batting at the No. 3 position, which assisted the visitors in posting a competitive score.
In the first game of the series, which took place at the Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, the elite batter Inglis, together with the experienced Steve Smith, launched an assault on the bowlers of the Indian team from the outside. For the first time in his career, Inglis scored a half-century off just 29 balls. Throughout the subsequent eighteen balls, the Australian batter achieved his first century, therefore writing a new chapter in the history of the game at its smallest format. The record for the fastest century scored by an Australian player in a men’s Twenty20 International was tied by Inglis.
The gloveman from Australia scored his first century for Australia in a Twenty20 International match in only 47 balls. In addition, Inglis has the second-fastest record for making a century in a Twenty20 International against India. Taking the second rank on the exclusive list of quickest century-makers against India in the shortest format, the 28-year-old player overtook the likes of Glenn Maxwell, Evin Lewis, and Rilee Rossouw to grab the second slot. David Miller, who scored a magnificent century against India in Guwahati last year, is the only player who is behind Inglis. Miller’s century came in 46 balls.
