Sakibul Gani Smashes Fastest List-A Century by an Indian as Bihar Post Record 574 in Vijay Hazare Trophy

Cricket fans had no time to recover after 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi made history with one of the fastest List-A centuries by an Indian, and Bihar delivered another shocking moment in the same match.
Just a few overs after Suryavanshi’s astonishing 190 came to an end, Bihar captain Sakibul Gani walked in and went one step further. Batting at No. 5, Gani tore into Arunachal Pradesh’s bowling and raced to a hundred in just 32 balls, becoming the fastest Indian ever to score a List-A century, overtaking Suryavanshi’s 36-ball effort from earlier in the day.
Sakibul Gani Breaks Record as Bihar Create History in Vijay Hazare Trophy
What started with Suryavanshi’s brilliance turned into a record-breaking partnership for Bihar, making it one of the most remarkable days in domestic cricket. Bihar also posted the highest-ever List-A team total, finishing on 574 for 6. Sakibul Gani has done something magical for Bihar. He has now not only become the Indian with the fastest List-A hundred (32 balls) but also took his side to a mammoth 564 in the Vijay Hazare Trophy plate group match.
The 26-year-old has surpassed Anmolpreet Singh’s record of 35-ball hundred. Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s century now stands fifth among all-time list and third among Indians.
