The format has changed but Mohammad Rizwan has continued his rhythm, stunned cricket fans by scoring his maiden T20I century against South Africa.
Rizwan proved his critics wrong who often bashed him for his strike-rate and power-hitting ability. The right-handed batsman struck seven sixes, most by any Pakistani in a T20I inning, and scored 104 runs at a strike-rate of 162.50.
Social media was flooded by applause for Rizwan immediately after he became the only Pakistani wicket-keeper and second batsman after Ahmed Shahzad to score a ton in T20Is.
Ravishing Rizwan!

Remember, Rizwan scored a match-winning maiden Test century against South Africa in the second Test at Pindi last Sunday.
