Top 5 T20 hundreds while chasing that ended on a losing cause

#3 K L Rahul, 110 not out - India Vs West Indies, 2016

Rahul partnered with Dhoni and Rohit Sharma to reach a 46-ball century

This particular game obtained historical significance as India played its first ever T20 International on American soil. Indian won the toss and chose to field. West Indies started to fire right from the onset and scored a whopping 126 runs in the first 57 balls. While Charles scored a quick fire 79, his fellow opener scored 100 to boost West Indies total to 245 runs in 20 overs.

Chasing a record target, India started on a tragic note. They lost both Rahane and Kohli for just 7 and 16 respectively. Rahul partnered first with Rohit and then with Dhoni and took India very close to the target. He scored an inordinate 110 runs off 51 balls with five sixes and 12 boundaries. It was the very first time in the history of T20I that two batsmen got centuries in one match. Rahul reached his ton off 46 balls which was the joint-second fastest ton in T20s.

Dwayne Bravo defended seven runs in the final over to inflict one-run defeat to the hard-fought Indians. This particular innings earned him a spot in the middle-order in One Day Internationals.
