#2 Two batsmen scored 100s in the same T20 innings
Two batsmen of the same team scoring hundreds in the same innings in a T20 game? The rare feat has happened only twice in T20 history and IPL 2016 can proudly boast one of them. Two of the most exciting batsmen in the world right now, the Royal Challengers Bangalore duo of Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers wrote their names into the history books when they scored 109* and 129* respectively against the Gujarat Lions in the same innings.
The duo slaughtered the Lions’ bowling attack, putting together a partnership of 229 runs in just 96 balls and in doing so they plundered 112 Runs in the last five overs of the innings which is the most by a team in T20. Previously, no team had scored more than 100 runs in the final five overs.
Previously, playing for Gloucestershire, Kevin O'Brien (119) and Hamish Marshall (102) did the same thing against Middlesex in 2011.
It will take a humongous effort by any pair to enlist their names in the coveted list.
