Ahmedabad, on 26 July 2022, Tuesday

It is said in the world of sports and especially in cricket that every record is made to be broken. A new record has been set for the youngest to score a century in T20i. This is a new record set in a qualifier match for 2024.

An accomplished player named Gustave Macion has created a major world record by scoring a century in the third T20 World Cup 2024 Europe Sub-Regional Qualifier tournament. Gustav McKeon has become the youngest batsman to score a century in T20 Internationals. He did this feat during the match against Switzerland. In this match, McKeon batted strongly and scored 109 runs off 61 balls, which included 5 fours and 9 sixes.

The French opener achieved this feat by scoring a century in T20 Internationals at the age of 18 years and 280 days. With this new record, Gustave McKeon has broken the record of Hazratullah Zazai of Afghanistan. Hazratullah Zazai was 20 years 337 days old when he scored a century against Ireland in 2019. Zazai stunned the cricket world by playing an unbeaten innings of 162 runs in 62 balls against Ireland in the year 2019. Third on the list is Sivakumar Periyalvar of Romania, who scored a century in T20 Internationals at the age of 21 years and 161 days.
