Who has taken the least amount of balls to reach a hundred at the first time of asking?
After Shikhar Dhawan’s outstanding 187 for India in Mohali critics were falling over themselves to praise the 27-year-old opener in his first Test match.
These compliments were probably fully justified as not only did the batsman help establish a winning lead for his side, but he also scored the fastest century on debut – reaching 100 in just 85 balls.
So before Dhawan reached this record-breaking landmark, who else hit centuries at double-quick time at the first time of asking?
