Sri Lankan batter Avishka Fernando lit up the ILT20 with a sensational knock for the Sharjah Warriors against the Dubai Capitals, smashing an 81-run blitz off just 27 balls. His innings, studded with 8 towering sixes, not only powered his team to a commanding position but also etched his name in the record books.
Avishka reached his fifty in just 16 balls, breaking multiple records in the process. It is the fastest fifty in the history of the ILT20 and the fastest T20 fifty ever scored by a Sri Lankan batter. The previous Sri Lankan record was held by T.M. Dilshan, who scored a 50 in 18 balls against Sussex. (NewsWire)
