In a cricketing spectacle that left fans in awe, Josh Inglis showcased brilliant batting prowess during the first T20I of the highly anticipated five-match series between India and Australia.

Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam and set the stage for Australia’s mammoth 208-run total.

A dazzling display of batting from Josh Inglis

Asked to bat first, the Aussie side lost their opener Matthew Short cheaply, but Inglis showcased impressive skills and spearheaded Australia’s innings from there, ultimately notching up a sensational century off 47 deliveries that saw him equal the record for the fastest T20I hundred by an Australian, previously held by Aaron Finch.

The numbers tell the tale

Inglis’s innings of 110 off just 50 balls comprised an impressive 11 fours and eight sixes, leaving Indian bowlers helpless as he dispatched deliveries to all corners of the ground. This maiden T20I ton shattered multiple records, placing Inglis among the elite in the world of T20 cricket.

Despite Inglis’s onslaught, Indian bowlers Prasidh Krishna and Ravi Bishnoi managed to make a mark by claiming wickets. Nevertheless, Australia still went on to set a total of 20💜8/3 in the allotted 20 overs.
