  "account": "Australian batter Jake Fraser-McGurk shattered the One-Day Cup record by reaching a half-century in just 14 deliveries during a match against Queensland. The 24-year-old opener smashed his way to 122 off 63 balls, hitting 10 fours and nine sixes, and set South Australia on a strong footing with a commanding total of 397/7. His blistering knock also ranks among the joint fourth-fastest half-centuries in List A cricket, just behind India's Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's world record of 11 deliveries. South Australia's captain Nathan McSweeney played a crucial supporting role, registering his third List A century with a composed 106 off 103 balls, anchoring the innings after Fraser-McGurk's dismissal. Together, their explosive performances gave South Australia a formidable total in their 50 overs.",

With a striking display featuring ten fours and nine sixes, Fraser-McGurk's talent shone brightly at the Karen Rolton Oval.",
