NEW DELHI: Sanju Samson<\/a> and Tilak Varma both struck unbeaten centuries as India posted a massive 283\/1 in the fourth and final T20I against South Africa in Johannesburg on Friday.
Varma delivered a stunning knock of 120* off just 47 balls, smashing 9 fours and 10 sixes, while Samson contributed with 109* off 56 balls, including 6 fours and 9 sixes. India, opting to bat first, made history by becoming the first team to have two centurions in a T20I innings.
Take a look at the records set during India’s sensational batting display at The Wanderers Stadium, which left South African bowlers helpless and clueless.
