Kusal Mendis made history during the match against Pakistan by scoring the fastest century ever by a Sri Lankan in the Men's ODI World Cup. He reached his hundred in just 65 balls, hitting an impressive 13 fours and four sixes along the way.
This remarkable achievement surpassed the previous records set by Kumar Sangakkara. Sangakkara held the record for the fastest century by a Sri Lankan in the World Cup with his innings of 70 balls against England in Wellington in 2015.
He also scored another quick century off 73 balls against Bangladesh in Melbourne during the same tournament.
Mendis's feat is a testament to his exceptional batting skills and will forever be remembered in Sri Lankan cricket history. His final score for the match against Pakistan was an impressive 122 runs.
