Will Jacks’ Incredible Century Powers Royal Challengers Bengaluru to Victory Over Gujarat Titans in IPL Spectacle
In a jaw-dropping display of power-hitting, Will Jacks of Royal Challengers Bengaluru lit up the Indian Premier League with one of the most explosive centuries ever seen in the tournament. Facing off against Gujarat Titans, Jacks unleashed a barrage of boundaries and sixes, smashing his way to a remarkable 41-ball hundred.
The Englishman’s innings was a rollercoaster ride, starting off slowly before exploding into a whirlwind of aggression. Struggling to find his rhythm initially, Jacks found his groove in the 15th over, where he took the Titans bowlers to the cleaners with three sixes and two fours off Mohit Sharma.
What followed was pure carnage as Jacks raced to his century in just six minutes after reaching his fifty, leaving the opposition shell-shocked. His incredible knock, combined with Virat Kohli’s unbeaten 70, propelled RCB to a resounding nine-wicket victory over the Titans.
Kohli, who had faced criticism for his approach in the middle overs in the previous game, was full of praise for Jacks’ explosive innings. “Phenomenal, initially when he came to bat, he was annoyed that he wasn’t able to strike the ball as he wanted to. The only talk was for him to stay calm,” Kohli said.
The RCB skipper also lauded Jacks for his game-changing performance, highlighting the impact of his blistering knock on the team’s victory. With the win coming in just 16 overs, RCB showcased their dominance with the bat and set a high standard for the rest of the tournament.
