Priyansh Arya, 24, stunned IPL fans with a blistering 103 off 42 balls for Punjab Kings against Chennai Super Kings, hitting 7 fours and 9 sixes at a strike rate of 245.24. It was the fastest century by an uncapped Indian and the fifth-fastest in IPL history. Coach Sanjay Bharadwaj revealed Arya called him at 7:30 AM, saying, “I didn’t do anything, sir. It was God.” Arya credited support from Shreyas Iyer and Ricky Ponting for backing his instincts. From Ashok Vihar, Delhi, Arya’s cricketing journey began at 10 and gained national fame with six sixes in a Delhi league match. (PC: PunjabKingsIPL)
