Amazing fact of cricket (mind blowing)

Prepare to be astounded by these mind-blowing cricket facts that will leave you in awe.

1. Shahid Afridi achieved the fastest ODI century using none other than Sachin Tendulkar's bat, marking an unforgettable moment in cricket history.

 In 1996, during a crucial match against Sri Lanka in Nairobi, Shahid Afridi, playing for Pakistan, found himself without a proper bat after being flown in from West Indies. It was Waqar Younis who came to his rescue, offering him Sachin Tendulkar's bat. With this borrowed bat, Afridi stunned the cricketing world by smashing 11 sixes and six boundaries, achieving a 37-ball century, which was then the fastest in ODI history. Although his record was eventually surpassed by Corey Anderson and then AB de Villiers, Afridi's explosive innings remains etched in cricketing lore.

2. Surprisingly, Vinod Kambli holds a Test match average superior to that of his childhood companion Sachin Tendulkar.

In a remarkable testament to his talent, Vinod Kambli participated in just 17 Test matches, where he notably scored two consecutive double centuries. Astonishingly, Kambli boasts a Test average of 54.20, surpassing the average of his childhood friend Sachin Tendulkar, who, after an illustrious career spanning 200 Tests, maintains an average of 53.78.

3. India stands as the sole nation to clinch victory in all three formats of the Cricket World Cup: the 60-over, 50-over, and 20-over editions, showcasing the country's diverse prowess and dominance in cricket on the global stage.
