Sanju Samson made history on Friday, becoming the first-ever cricketer to hit back-to-back T20I centuries for India in the opening T20I against South Africa in Durban, following up his scintillating 111 off 47 balls in the previous match against Bangladesh.

Samson brought up his century in just 47 balls, blasting 7 fours and 9 sixes, and also set a new record for the fastest T20I century by an Indian against South Africa.
