Gustav McKeon, 18-Year-Old French Batter, Scripts World Record By Becoming Youngest Men's T20I Centurion
French batter Gustav McKeon became the youngest men's cricketer to smash a T20I hundred on Monday. He accomplished this feat against Switzerland in Vantaa during their T20 World Cup 2024 Europe Sub-Regional Qualifier tournament match. At the age of 18 years and 280 days, McKeon blasted 109 runs in just 61 balls with the help of five fours and nine sixes. He broke the record of Afghanistan batter Hazratullah Zazai, who had smashed a brilliant 162* off 62 balls against Ireland in 2019 at the age of 20 years and 337 days.
