Urvil Patel Century: A total of 577 players were bid in the mega auction of IPL 2025 but only 182 players could find buyers. That means a total of 395 players were disappointed in the auction. One such player was Urvil Patel who remained unsold in the mega auction but he did not let the disappointment overpower him and created a new record by scoring 2 stormy centuries within a week. Urvil Patel had broken Rishabh Pant’s record last month while playing for Gujarat in the Syed Mushtaq Ali tournament. Urvil accomplished a great feat by scoring a century in just 28 balls. In this way he became the Indian batsman to score the fastest century in T20 cricket. He scored a century against Tripura in just 28 balls and with this he pushed Pant to the second position in terms of completing the fastest century in T20. Earlier, Pant had done a great feat of scoring a century in 32 balls.

Gujarat batsman created history

Only a few days had passed since Urvil Patel scored this historic century and now he once again created a sensation by scoring a stormy century. Urvil scored a century in 36 balls against Uttarakhand in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Tournament 2024. In this way, he achieved the feat of scoring the third fastest century in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Tournament within a week. Now Urvil has 2 centuries in his name among the fastest top-3 T20 centuries in the Syed Mushtaq Ali tournament. In this match played in Indore, the Gujarat batsman played a brilliant inning of 115 runs in just 41 balls which included 8 fours and 11 skyscraper sixes.

This century of Urvil is the fourth fastest century by an Indian in T20 cricket. He missed breaking Rohit Sharma’s record. The hitman had scored a century in just 35 balls. After seeing this brilliant performance of Urvil, many teams must be repenting because no one had any idea that this batsman who remained unsold in the mega auction would create a series of records in the Syed Mushtaq tournament by scoring one stormy century after another.
