Harmanpreet Kaur entered her name into the record books as she became the first Indian women to score a century in T20Is during the opening game of the ICC Women’s World T20 2018 against New Zealand on Friday.
The Indian skipper smashed her maiden T20I hundred off just 49 deliveries as she helped India post a commanding total of 194/5 in their allotted 20 overs.
Harmanpreet’s innings of 103 (51 balls) included seven fours and eight huge sixes as India posted the highest total of Women’s World Cup history at the Providence stadium in Guayana.

Harmanpreet Kaur started with 5 runs off the first 13 balls she faced. She has hit 69 off the next 37 at a S/R of 186(!). And she is still batting. Incredible, electric stuff. #WWT20

Hitting right out of the top drawer. Can Harmanpreet Kaur get a century? Shots similar to the ones she played during 'that' knock in Derby last year. Joy to watch. #wwt20

Harmanpreet Kaur has to be among the top 5 Indian power strokeplayers to date. There haven't been that many. Sehwag, Kapil, Rohit, Dhoni…
