Centuries in T20s are a rare feat as the format provides very little time for the batsman to score big. Especially in a tournament like PSL, the T20 league in Pakistan, where teams are filled with fiery Pakistani bowlers, it will be a big feat to move to a triple-digit score.
The Multan Sultan batsman Usman Khan’s 36-ball century against Quetta gladiators in 2023 in Rawalpindi is the fastest century ever scored by a batter in a PSL game.
This article will list the fastest centuries (in terms of balls faced) in PSL history.
