N Jagadeesan smashes world records with fifth consecutive ton in Vijay Hazare Trophy; Tamil Nadu achieve rare feat

N Jagadeesan continued his rich vein of form in the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy as he hammered a fifth century on the trot to help Tamil Nadu give a solid start in a Group C match against Arunachal Pradesh at the M. Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru on Monday. Jagadeesan put up his best performance in the tournament so far as he played a knock of 277 runs which was decorated by 25 fours and 15 sixes. In the process, he smashed the world record of scoring the most centuries on the trot in men’s List A cricket.

The 26-year-old wicketkeeper-batter surpassed legendary Sri Lanka batsman Kumar Sangakkara, South Africa’s Alviro Petersen, and Karnataka opener Devdutt Padikkal, all of whom have 4 successive centuries in the 50-over format of the game. Also, during the match, Jagadeesan went on to become the batter to have scored the highest individual runs in List A cricket. Jagadeesan surpassed Surrey batter Alistair Brown who scored 268 runs against Glamorgan in 2002.

Prior to scoring a ton on Monday, Jagadeesan scored centuries against Andhra, Chhattisgarh, Goa, and Haryana. Notably, with his fifth century, Jagadeesan has also surpassed Virat Kohli, Prithvi Shaw, Ruturaj Gaikwad, and Devdutt Padikkal to become the player to hit the most number of hundreds in a single edition of the Vijay Hazare Trophy. Kohli had scored four hundreds in the 2008-09 season, and topped the batting charts that year with 534 runs from seven matches at an average of 89. Moreover, Jagadeesan is currently leading the batting charts with 799 runs in six innings in this edition of the Vijay Hazare Trophy. It is the second most in a single edition of the tournament behind Prithvi Shaw’s 827-run season in 2020/21. Tamil Nadu still have a group game against Kerala on Wednesday before the knockouts and Jagadeesan will get a shot at surpassing Shaw’s tally. Meanwhile, Jagadeesan and Sai Sudarshan also became the first pair to share 400 plus runs partnership in List-A cricket. The duo stitched up an opening stand of 416 runs in just 38.3 overs.

Interestingly, Jagadeesan and Sudarshan’s fireworks helped Tamil Nadu become the first team to score 500-plus runs as the team smashed 506/2 in 50 overs. Before this spectacular performance by the Tamil Nadu team, this record was previously held by England who had smashed 498 runs in an ODI against the Netherlands. It is worth noting that Jagadeesan was recently released by the IPL franchise Chennai Super Kings, but owing to his brilliant show, he will be on the radar of many franchises when the IPL 2023 mini-auction takes place in December.
