3 Indian batters with most consecutive List A Hundreds: The major List A tournament Vijay Hazare Trophy is currently being organized in India. At present the tournament has reached the final stage, now only the semi-final and final matches are left. In the first quarter-final played today (January 12), Vidarbha made it to the semi-finals by defeating Rajasthan one-sidedly. Rajasthan, batting first, scored 291/8, in response to which Vidarbha scored 292/1. The hero of Vidarbha's victory was captain Karun Nair, who once again managed to play a big innings and scored an unbeaten 122 runs. He hit 13 fours and 5 tremendous sixes in his innings.
Thanks to his strong innings, Karun Nair has now made his name among those batsmen who have scored the most number of consecutive centuries in List A. He has reached the second position in terms of scoring consecutive centuries in List A by an Indian. In this article, we are going to mention those 3 Indian batsmen who have scored the most number of consecutive centuries in List A.
Karnataka batsman Devdutt Padikkal likes List A a lot in limited overs. This player showed his tremendous form with the bat in the 2020-21 Vijay Hazare Trophy season and was the second highest run-scorer during that period. That season, Padikkal had scored 727 runs in 7 matches and also scored 4 centuries. All these centuries of Padikkal came in four consecutive matches.
Vidarbha has made it to the semi-finals this season and a big credit for this goes to their captain Karun Nair. Nair, who is out of Team India, seems to be in tremendous form and all the plans of the bowlers against him are flopping. Karun has shown tremendous form so far in the current season of Vijay Hazare Trophy and has scored more than 600 runs. During this period, he has scored 4 consecutive centuries in the last 4 matches. Before scoring a century against Rajasthan, he had also scored centuries against UP, Tamil Nadu and Chandigarh.
N Jagadeesan has achieved the feat of scoring most consecutive centuries in List A cricket. Jagadeesan had scored 5 consecutive centuries while playing for Tamil Nadu in the 2022-23 Vijay Hazare Trophy tournament, which is a record not only for India but also in world cricket. Karun Nair will keep an eye on this record of his.
