Jacks’ ability to score quickly and his penchant for big hits have made him a valuable asset to the RCB team as he struck 41-ball hundred to fashion his team’s third victory of the season.
Jacks has reached his century in the blink of an eye. From 17 off first 17 balls to reaching a century in just 41 deliveries, showcasing his explosive hitting prowess.
Gujarat Titans pacer Mohit Sharma fell victim to Jacks’ assault, as he smashed three sixes and two fours off him in the 15th over. Subsequently, Rashid Khan bore the brunt of Jacks’ carnage, as he was hit for six, six, four, six, and six to bring up Jacks’ century and secure the nine-wicket victory for RCB.
Jacks accelerated from fifty to a hundred in just 10 balls, reaching his half-century in the 14th over and achieving his century on the final ball of the 16th over.
The Englishman plundered as many as 10 sixes in his breathtaking effort and remained unbeaten on 100 off 41 balls.
Jacks also added an unbeaten 166-run stand with Virat Kohli (70 not out of 44) as RCB gunned down the 201-run target with as many 24 balls to spare.
RCB, who are enduring another tough season, picked up their third win in 10 games while Titans suffered their sixth loss in 10 matches. The Faf du Plessis-led team seemed to have finally found some momentum, having picked a back to back win on Sunday.
