Centurions @ T20 Internationals

Richard Levi (SA) 117* vs New Zealand - Feb 2012

Playing in his only second international match, Richard Levi did it in style by scoring fastest century (100 off 45 balls) in T20I.

Chris Gayle (WI) 117 v South Africa - Sep 2007

Chris Gayle`s stunning 57-ball 117 went in vain as West Indies lost to South Africa by 8 wickets, thanks to some wayward fielding and bowling from the visitors. A brilliant Herschelle Gibbs capitalised on the shortcomings and helped Proteas romp home with 14 balls remaining.

Brendon McCullum (NZ) 116* v Australia - Feb 2010

Brendon McCullum played a key role scoring 116 to help New Zealand overcome Australian challenge in a dramatic high-scoring game at Christchurch. Riding on McCullum’s brilliant 56-ball 116, Kiwis posted a challenging 214/6 after their allotted 20 overs. In reply, Michael Clarke and Cameron White’s explosive innings meant the scores were tied after 20 overs. New Zealand prevailed in the Super Over.

Tillakaratne Dilshan (SL) 104* v Australia - Aug 2011

Tillakaratne Dilshan’s composed 104 was the highlight of their 35-run win over Australia in 1st Twenty20 at Pallekele. Late fireworks from Dilshan ensured Lanka posted a compelling total. The innings included 12 fours and five sixes. In reply, Australia could hardly defy the spin attack from the Lankans. Debutant Dilruwan Perera, who claimed 3 wickets for 26, stood out among the pack.

Suresh Raina (India) 101v South Africa - May 2010

Twenty20 specialist Suresh Raina gave India their second win in the 2010 World T20 hosted by West Indies. Raina overcame a jittery start and went on to give India a formidable total. However, South Africans did not pose any major threat while in chase against a spin-heavy Indian attack. Eventually they fell short of the target by 14 runs. Raina’s innings was laced up with 9 fours and 5 sixes.

Mahela Jayawardene (SL) 100 v Zimbabwe - May 2010

Mahela Jayawardene’s 100 came in the 14-run victory in a rain-affected match against Zimbabwe in World T20 2010. When others struggled to find runs on a slow pitch, Jayawardene scored freely to charge Sri Lanka to 173. However, heavy rains interrupted Zimbabwean chase and they lost on the D\L method as they could only reach 29 for 1 when the par score was 43.

Richie Berrington (Scot) 100 v Bangladesh - Jul 2012

Little known Richie Berrington guided Scotland to their first international win against a Full Member with a 34-run victory against Bangladesh.
