Finn Allen, the explosive New Zealand opener, made history by scoring the fastest century in T20 World Cup history with a remarkable 33-ball hundred during the semi-final against South Africa in Kolkata. This extraordinary innings broke the previous men’s record of a 47-ball century set by Chris Gayle in the 2016 T20 World Cup. Allen also became the first player ever to score a century in a T20 World Cup knockout match. His innings featured a strike rate above 300 and included 18 boundaries, equaling the record for the most boundaries in a men’s T20 World Cup innings. The powerful performance helped New Zealand dominate the match and secure a place in the tournament final.
