Answer 10

Glen Chapple, 27 balls (21 minutes), Lancashire v Glamorgan at Old Trafford, Manchester in 1993.

As this century was achieved in contrived circumstances to reach a declaration, it is no longer credited with being the fastest hundred ever.

The fastest hundred in terms of balls not achieved to bring about a declaration is by David Hookes, 34 balls (43 minutes), South Australia v Victoria at Adelaide, 1982-3.

The fastest authentic hundred in terms of minutes is by Percy Fender, 35 minutes (40 balls), Surrey v Northamptonshire at Northampton in 1920.

The fastest Test hundred in terms of balls is by Viv Richards, 56 balls, West Indies v England at St John's, Antigua, 1985-6.

In terms of time, the fastest Test hundred is by Jack Gregory, 70 minutes, Australia v South Africa at Johannesburg 1921-2.

The fastest hundred in ODI cricket is by Shahid Afridi, 37 balls, Pakistan v Sri Lanka at Nairobi in 1996-7.
