Brian Bennett Created History: Brian Bennett has created history. He has become the first player to score the fastest century from the Zimbabwe cricket team in Test cricket. Before that, this big achievement was recorded in the name of Williams. Who scored a century in 106 balls while batting Atishi against the New Zealand cricket team in 2016. But last yesterday (May 23), Bennett has now achieved this feat by scoring a century in just 97 balls in Nottingham against England. Not only this, he has also become the first batsman to score a century by facing less than 100 balls in Test cricket for Zimbabwe.
Bennett managed to score 139 runs
In the first match of the ongoing Test series against England, where other Zimbabwee batsmen were seen battling in front of English bowlers. At the same time, Bennett has won everyone’s heart with his best batting while starting the innings. He faced a total of 143 balls for his team during the match. Meanwhile, he managed to score 139 runs at a strike rate of 97.20. During this, 26 beautiful fours came out of his bat.

Zimbabwe was reduced to 265 runs despite Bennett’s best batting
Chasing the target of 565-6 (declair) runs in the first innings from England, Bennett gave a heart-winning performance in the first innings for Zimbabwe. But other batsmen besides him could not walk in front of English bowlers. As a result, the entire team collapsed for 265 runs in the first innings.
After Zimbabwe’s first innings piled up cheaply, the English team invited him to play follow -on. By the second day stump, the Zimbabwe team has lost two wickets here. The outstanding players are Brian Bennett (01) and Captain Craig Ervin (02). Till the stump was declared, the team’s score is 30 runs at the loss of two wickets after the end of 10 overs.
