Key Insights on Record-Breaking Batting Performances in SA20

Highest Individual Innings and Boundary Records

Shai Hope has smashed the highest individual score in SA20. He scored an unbeaten 118-run knock off 69 balls for Pretoria Capitals (PC) against Durban’s Super Giants (DSG) in 2026.

Hope’s 118* is also the highest individual score by a wicketkeeper-batter and by a batter at the home of the opposition in SA20.

Hope scored 90 of the 118 runs through boundaries (9 fours and 9 sixes), the most by a batter in an innings in SA20.

Ryan Rickelton smashed 11 sixes in his 113-run knock for MI Cape Town (MICT) against DSG, the most by a batter in an innings in SA20.


Individual Milestone and Century Feats

Faf du Plessis was the first-ever batter to cross the 100-run mark in SA20 history. He hammered an unbeaten 113 from 50 balls for Joburg Super Kings (JSK) against DSG in 2023.

Du Plessis’ 113* remains the highest individual score by a captain in the South African T20 league.

Ryan Rickelton became the first batter to score two centuries in SA20 history. He scored both of his hundreds – 113 vs DSG & 113* vs JSK – in the 2025-26 edition.

Will Jacks has hammered the fastest century in SA20, crossing the 100-run mark off 41 balls for the Capitals against DSG in 2024.


Position-Based and Venue Scoring Records

Kyle Verreynne’s unbeaten 116 for PC against MI Cape Town (MICT) in 2024 is the highest individual score by a No. 3 batter in SA20. 

Verreynne’s 116* is also the highest individual score by a batter at home ground and in a losing cause in SA20. Despite his mighty efforts, the Capitals failed to chase 249 against MICT.

Aiden Markram’s 100 for Sunrisers Eastern Cape (SEC) against JSK in 2023 is the only century by a No. 4 batter in SA20.

Heinrich Klaasen’s unbeaten 104 from 44 balls against PC helped DSG post 254 for 4, the highest team total in SA20.
