Suryakumar Yadav, the Mr. 360 of the Indian cricket team. Or the ?Indian Michael Hussey? is in a league of his own. He had a splendid 2022 season, and he started the 2023 season on a very high note. He battered the Sri Lankan bowlers all over the field and scored his third T20I century. Suryakumar Yadav's first ball at six was definitely one of the best ways to announce his arrival at the global stage. They were all scored in the previous year. Not many batters are able to achieve this feat. We have seen many batters score 2 hundreds in a T20I, but only a few have managed to score 3, here is a look at those players:?



**We have considered only the top 15 international teams. **?



<h2>Rohit Sharma:&nbsp;</h2>



From one Mumbaikar to another, Rohit Sharma holds the record for the most international centuries in T20Is. Sharma has been a true asset to the Indian cricket team. But with the kind of disrespect that the BCCI has shown him in the past year and with the rumors of him getting sacked his service in Indian cricket has been marred a bit. Rohit Sharma had earlier mentioned Suryakumar Yadav in one of his award presentation ceremonies, saying, "Suryakumar Yadav is a player to watch out for." But that doesn?t overshadow the fact that he is one of the greatest batters that the world has ever witnessed, especially in white-ball cricket.?Here is a look at his hundreds:?

<h2>Colin Munro has scored 3 T20I Hundreds Similar to Suryakumar Yadav:&nbsp;</h2>



Colin Munro was a gun in the 2017-2018 season. He was an impact player and an underdog. The oppositions used to prepare for the likes of Guptill, Williamson, and Taylor but Colin used to walk in like the syllabus question. Similar to Suryakumar Yadav, he also has 3 T20I hundreds. He had a glorious pick-up shot over square leg and was very wristy. ?

<h2>Glenn Maxwell has Scored 3 T20I Hundreds Similar to Suryakumar Yadav:?</h2>

Glenn Maxwell and his impact on a game are unmatched. He is born to dominate. If Maxwell is on the pitch with the bat in his hands, he makes the rules. We have seen what he is capable of doing in the 2014 IPL season. He single-handedly took the Punjab Kings to the finale in that season. He is one of the cleanest strikers of the ball. Similar to Surya, he also has 3 T20I hundreds, Also, him being an all-rounder adds immense value to the team. A team may also not get a better fielder than Maxwell who shows total commitment. ?

Pakistan skipper Babar Azam yet again proved why is he rated as one of the best modern-day batters in world of cricket. He played a sensational knock in the second T20I against New Zealand and etched his name in the record books.&nbsp;



Babar Azam smashed a blistering century and helped his side win the second game on the trot. This was his third T20I ton and is an only a century behind Rohit Sharma, who has 4 T20Is.

Rishabh Pant, who was struggling throughout the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, went on to slam a 29-ball fifty in the second innings of the fifth test at the Sydney Cricket Ground. His innings gave India a massive chance to stick into the game and have some hopes going into the third day. This is not new that Pant has slammed a quickfire knock.
Even in the past, he has played some blazing innings. India have a rich history of batsmanship. Over the years, there have been many Indian flamboyant batters who have made the world notice the game. This article will include some of those batters, where we will talk about the top five fastest half-centuries in test cricket for the Indian cricket team.
<h2>Top Five Fastest Half-Centuries for Team India in Test Cricket</h2>
5. Yashasvi Jaiswal (31 balls) vs Bangladesh, 2024
Yashasvi Jaiswal is among the new generation of batting stars for India. He has already shown that he is a special talent. He slammed the joint-fourth fastest test fifty for India. He slammed a 31-ball fifty against Bangladesh in Kanpur in September 2024. India declared 285/9 in just 34.4 overs. Jaiswal also scored 51 not out in the second innings and won the MOTM award.
4. Shardul Thakur (31 balls) vs England, 2021
Shardul Thakur is known for his bowling ability, but he knows how to use the long handle. He has shown that time to time that he is capable with the bat as well. Shardul has twin half-centuries at the Oval against England in 2021. He made 57 and 60 in the game, and India won that by 157 runs. The fifty in the first innings came off just 31 balls. He made 57 off 36 balls, with 7 fours and three sixes.
3. Kapil Dev (30 balls) vs Pakistan, 1982
Former Indian captain Kapil Dev was a swashbuckling cricketer who had the ability to win games with bat and ball both. He played many game-changing innings in his career. One of those came against Pakistan in 1982 in Karachi. Though India lost that game, Kapil was at his best. He slammed a 30-ball fifty in the first innings and made 73 off 53, with 12 fours and one six.He also took 5/102 with the ball.
2. Rishabh Pant (29 balls) vs Australia, 2025
Pant is among the fearless cricketers in modern-day cricket. He has played some game-changing knocks, and one came in the New Year test against Australia at SCG. India were down and out after losing their top order. That's when he came out and slammed a 29-ball fifty and scored 61 off 33 balls, with six fours and four sixes. His innings helped India to get back into the game.
1. Rishabh Pant (28 balls) vs Sri Lanka, 2022
Pant also holds the record for the fastest Test fifty for India. It came against Sri Lanka in 2022 in Bengaluru. Pant scored 39 off 26 in the first innings. He carried on in the second innings and slammed a 28-ball fifty. He made 50 off 31 balls, with seven fours and two sixes to register the fastest fifty for India. The hosts won the game by 238 runs.

Rishabh Pant slammed a 29-ball fifty in the second innings of the fifth and final test against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground. He scored 61 runs off 33 balls.

List of Fastest Half-Centuries for India in Test Cricket

India suffered a massive blow when ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah left the field on Day 2 of the ongoing fifth and final test between India and Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground. On the second day, Bumrah only bowled 8 more overs and was seen in discomfort.
He left the field just after lunch on day 1 after bowling one over. He had a word with Virat Kohli, who led the team in his absence. Later he was seen going to the hospital for precautionary scans and left SCG with security liaison officer Anshuman Upadhyay and the team doctor.
It left India with no choice, and the other pacers had to share the workload. However, the Indian bowlers bowled pretty well and dismissed Australia for 181 runs in 51 overs, giving a four-run lead to India, but Bumrah's injury became the talking point of the town.
<h2>Jasprit Bumrah's injury update: Pacer returns to SCG after undergoing scans</h2>
It came as a body blow to the touring team, who were already struggling to survive in the series, when Jasprit Bumrah had to leave the ground. After a wait of a couple of hours, the pacer returned at the venue around 11:15 AM IST on Saturday. However, he was in discomfort when he left the field, but when he came back, he looked pretty relaxed.
It can be a confidence booster for Team India and fans, as Bumrah's body language indicated that there is no sign of worry. Notably, India will be bowling in the fourth innings, and they need their best bowler at his full throttle. Bumrah is the leading wicket-taker in the ongoing series. He has taken 32 wickets at an exceptional average of 13.05.
Even on Day 2, he took an important wicket of Marnus Labuschagne. In his absence, Prasidh Krishna and Mohammed Siraj stepped up and bowled pretty well. Both pacers took three wickets each, and Nitish Kumar Reddy also supported them with two vital wickets.
At the stumps on Day 2, India finished at 141/6, and they have a lead of 145 with four wickets in hand. Ravindra Jadeja (8 off 39) and Washington Sundar (6 off 17) are at the crease. The Indian top order failed once again, but it was Rishabh Pant who slammed India's second-fastest fifty off 29 balls.
He scored 61 off 33 balls, with six fours and four sixes to bring back India into the game. However, India lost a couple of wickets at the very end, which has made the game pretty even. But India would hope to have a sizable lead of around 200 runs, and with Bumrah completely fit, they will fancy their chances on this tough pitch.

Jasprit Bumrah left Sydney Cricket Ground on Day 2 after feeling discomfort. He went for scans with the doctor and has returned back.

The crowd at the Sydney Cricket Ground has always been under the scanner, especially when the Indian team plays. During the last Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the fans in Sydney didn't go easy on the Indian players as they made life tough for them. 
During the last Test between India and Australia, Indian players in Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj were at the receiving end of racial slurs. The players of the team were abused by the fans, and it turned out to be a big controversy, with Sydney Cricket management banning the particular section of the ground. 
A similar kind of thing unfolded on Day 1 of the ongoing match between India and Australia. Again, a particular section of the crowd came under the radar. The fans were abusing Indian fans in the stadium as they were seen chanting, "Where is your visa?". The video went viral on the internet with many lashing out at fans. 
The people at the Sydney Cricket Ground were also seen booing Indian players as well. They had a go at Virat Kohli and then later Jasprit Bumrah, who was involved in a massive fight with Sam Konstas during the last over of Day 1 of the ongoing Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. 
Coming to the match, Australia started the last day of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 on a dominating note. The visitors carried their good form and put India under massive pressure at the Sydney Cricket Ground in Sydney. The start with the bat didn't go the way India would've wanted as both the openers, KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal, were back early. Shubman Gill, who replaced Rohit Sharma, played a decent hand of 20 runs off 64 balls with two boundaries. 
He, along with Virat Kohli (17), added 40 runs for the third wicket. But both the batters couldn't bat for long as India was left tottering at 72 for four. Rishabh Pant (40) batted with great grit and looked solid before he yet again perished to a wild shot. Ravindra Jadeja (26), too, had a start, but he too couldn't get going for long as India was reduced to 148/8. Captain Jasprit Bumrah (22) hit some shots in the end and took the team to a total of 185. 
Australia, in response, lost Usman Khawaja as Jasprit Bumrah bagged his 31st wicket of the series. At stumps, Australia was 9 for one with 176 runs behind.
