Top 6 fastest Test tons since 2000

#5 David Warner – 69 balls, Perth, 2012

David Warner was at his devastating best

It was a bad series for India and Warner rubbed it in further. India were all out batting first for 161. In reply, Warner smashed a 69-ball century, going on to make 180 in just 159 balls, excoriating bowlers like Zaheer Khan, Umesh Yadav, Ishant Sharma and R Vinay Kumar.

Yadav eventually took a five-wicket haul as Australia went from 230 for 1 to 369 all out. They scored their 369 in just 76.2 overs, thanks to Warner’s massive innings. He added 214 with Ed Cowan (74) for the opening wicket after which the next highest was 30. India continued their dismal performance in the second innings scoring only 171 losing by an innings and 37 runs. Warner was Player of the Match too.
