Wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant, who played in action, crossed the 50 runs. He hit 7 fours and 2 sixes in 28 balls and hit a half-century. Kapil Dev thus broke the 40-year-old record.
Kapil Dev was the fastest Indian to score a half-century in Test cricket. During the Test against Pakistan in Karachi in December 1982, Kapil Dev hit a half-century off 30 balls. Rishabh Pant has now surpassed Kapil Dev’s record of half a century off fewer balls.
Afridi hit 50 off 26 balls in 2005, the lowest number of balls hit in India. Rishabh Pant missed the record in just 2 balls.
