Eyman Fatima, a young cricket sensation from Pakistan, has left spectators in awe with her incredible century in the National Women's T20 Tournament. At just 21 years old, the Invincibles batter hit 12 fours and six sixes, scoring her runs in just 49 balls. Playing at number five, she batted with determination, surging ahead of her team's struggling start at 30 for three. Eyman's remarkable innings was supported by a crucial 140-run partnership with Sidra Amin, who remained unbeaten on 48 from 44 balls.
The Invincibles team, batting first, finished with 175 for four from their 20 overs. In response, Challengers were bowled out for a mere 103 in 17 overs, with Syeda Aroob Shah's impressive 3-wicket haul of 24 runs being the highlight. Eyman was acknowledged as the Player of the Match for her outstanding performance. This is not Eyman's first explosive innings; in May 2026, she scored an unbeaten 79 off just 43 balls against Zimbabwe, earning her the Player of the Match award.
Eyman's quick rise in the cricket world is a testament to her talent, and at the age of 22, she has a bright future ahead of her.
