NEW DELHI: November 27 holds immense significance for Gujarat's young wicketkeeper-batter Urvil Patel. On this day in 2023, just a day after being released by the Gujarat Titans, Urvil smashed an unbeaten 41-ball 100 for Gujarat in a Vijay Hazare Trophy match against Arunachal Pradesh in Chandigarh. That century became the second-fastest by an Indian batter in List A cricket.
Exactly a year later, Urvil achieved another remarkable feat, this time in the shortest format.
