Dates follow UTC, the same clock as our daily posts.
On this day in 2020, Mayank Agarwal produced a blistering statement of intent, smashing 106 off just 50 balls for Punjab Kings against Rajasthan Royals in the IPL. It remains the standout knock of September 27 in T20 history, a century of rare ferocity. Yet the Royals had their own hero in Sanju Samson, who countered with a scintillating 85 off 42, ensuring a batting duel for the ages.
The date has served up fireworks across formats and eras. Back in 2012, Johnson Charles struck 84 off 56 for the West Indies against England, while Rahkeem Cornwall thundered 91 off 54 for Barbados Royals in the 2022 CPL.
With the ball, Holly Colvin was magnificent in 2012, claiming 4 for 9 against Pakistan.
