5 captains who have scored centuries in T20Is

#3 Shane Watson, 124 not out vs India, Sydney 2016

Shane Watson's century went in vain as India won the game by seven wickets

Australia had already lost the first two games of the three-match T20I series against India in 2016 and their only chance of salvaging some pride and avoiding a whitewash was if their captain did something special.

Shane Watson did lead them from the front with the bat as he scored a magnificent unbeaten knock of 124 runs in 71 balls, laced with 10 boundaries and six towering maximums. Australia scored 197 for 5 but India won the game on the back of fine fifties from Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli and vital cameos from Suresh Raina and Yuvraj Singh to seal the 3-0 whitewash.
