ISLAMABAD: England’s James Vince unleashed a breathtaking performance, clocking the third fastest century in the history of PSL 2025 during a thrilling encounter against Karachi Kings.

Vince raced to his hundred in 42 balls, propelling Karachi Kings to an unprecedented chase of 235 runs against Multan Sultan.

This remarkable feat marks the third-highest successful chase ever recorded in the Pakistan Super League.

Fastest centuries in the PSL

There was a twist towards the end of the chase, with Vince and Khushdil departing in quick succession, but Kings held their nerve.

Needing five runs off the last five balls, Abbas Afridi hit a six down the ground, taking them over the line.

It gave the Kings the third-highest successful chase in the history of the PSL, and their best ever in the competition.

It is worth noting that the top five successful chases in the PSL have all come in the last three seasons.

Earlier, Multan Sultans posted 234-3, thanks to Mohammed Rizwan’s unbeaten 63-ball 105, and late assaults from Kamran Ghulam and Michael Bracewell.
