Dates follow UTC, the same clock as our daily posts.
On This Day, June 26, 2025, Andre Fletcher lit up Major League Cricket with a sparkling century for the Los Angeles Knight Riders against the Washington Freedom. The right-hander blazed 104 from just 60 deliveries, the standout knock among those recorded on this date and a reminder of his explosive pedigree on the global T20 circuit.
The date has long carried plenty of run-scoring pedigree. Back in 2021, Dawid Malan struck 76 off 48 for England against Sri Lanka, while West Indies opener Evin Lewis raced to 71 from 35 against South Africa.
With the ball, Sri Lanka's Dushmantha Chameera was outstanding in 2021, claiming four wickets for just 17 runs against England, narrowly edging Afy Fletcher's 4 for 23 for the West Indies women in 2024.

Coverage & definitionsCricsheet ball-by-ball · matches played on this date (UTC) · data through 24 October 2026Show ▾
Source. Ball-by-ball data from Cricsheet. New matches are loaded from Cricsheet twice a day (10:00 and 22:00 UTC), typically a day or two after a match is published there.
Internationals. T20 internationals are included only when both teams are ICC full members. Fixtures against Associate nations (e.g. Netherlands, Scotland, Nepal, USA) are not in the dataset, so international totals for players who faced them are lower than their full career figures. Afghanistan men's internationals are absent for a different reason: Cricsheet has withheld every match involving the Afghanistan men's team since 14 November 2024, so none of them can be loaded. Every full member's totals are lower by the matches they played against Afghanistan, and Afghanistan men's players do not appear at all. Afghanistan women's matches are unaffected.
Leagues. Leagues: IPL, BBL, PSL, CPL, SA20, MLC, ILT20, BPL, LPL, WBBL, WPL — full history of each. Domestic T20 competitions outside this list (e.g. the Blast, SMAT, Super Smash) are not included.
Exclusions. Super overs are excluded from every total. A match abandoned without a ball bowled has no ball-by-ball file and is not in the dataset, even where a toss took place and official records credit the named players with an appearance. M can therefore sit one or two below a player's official career figure. Match appearances (M) come from the playing XI in each match file, so a match where a player neither batted nor bowled still counts as an appearance. Where M is missing, that player's appearances have not been loaded yet.
"Best" innings and spells are ranked by runs and by wickets then runs conceded; a quiet date here is only quiet within this dataset.
