Abhishek Sharma, Vaibhav Suryavanshi

Who can break the record for the fastest half-century in T20 Internationals? The name that comes to everyone's mind is Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who has become famous in the cricket world for his explosive batting. Abhishek Sharma is tied for fourth in this regard, having smashed a fifty in 14 balls against New Zealand this year. Yuvraj Singh, who scored the fastest half-century, is tied for second. Find out who is in first place.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi made his T20I debut on the England tour this year, though his first series wasn't great. He then performed well on the Zimbabwe tour, scoring a half-century in 18 balls. This is currently his fastest T20I half-century. Although he has only played a handful of matches, he will shatter many other records in the coming days. However, breaking the record for the fastest fifty will be difficult. He is currently in Delhi with Team India, where a three-match T20I series against Afghanistan is underway. Vaibhav didn't make the playing eleven in the first match. The second match is today (September 15).
