RCB’s Rajat Patidar Hits Century in 68 Balls Ahead of IPL Retention

The deadline for IPL retention is October 31. Before this deadline, the only question going around in everyone’s mind is which players will all the 10 teams retain. Meanwhile, the batsman of Royal Challengers Bangalore i.e. RCB has created a new record by scoring a century. This player is a favorite of Virat Kohli and has also done wonders with the bat for RCB last season. In IPL 2024, this batsman was the third-highest run scorer for RCB. By now you must have understood which player we are talking about.

The name of the player we are talking about is Rajat Patidar. Rajat Patidar has created a ruckus with the bat just 2 days before the deadline for IPL retention. Rajat, playing for Madhya Pradesh in Indore, created a big record by scoring a brilliant century against Haryana in the Ranji Trophy. Rajat did the feat of scoring a century in just 68 balls. In this way, he became the 5th fastest batsman to score a century in the history of Ranji Trophy. Rajat Patidar scored 159 runs in just 102 balls with the help of 13 fours and 7 sixes.

Fastest century in Ranji Trophy

48 balls – Rishabh Pant vs Jharkhand, Thiruvananthapuram, 2016/17

56 balls – Rajesh Bora vs Tripura, Guwahati, 1987/88

56 balls – Riyan Parag vs Chhattisgarh, Raipur, 2023/24

60 balls – Ruben Paul vs Goa, Madras, 1995/96

68 balls – Rajat Patidar vs Haryana, Indore, 2023/24

This year the domestic season did not start well for Rajat Patidar and he was able to score only 146 runs in 6 innings of Duleep Trophy. He could not do anything special in the first round of Ranji Trophy, but he created a buzz by scoring 90 runs in the second match against Punjab and now he has done wonders by scoring a brilliant century against Haryana.
