Jason Roy now holds the record for highest PSL score
Crazy run chase in PSL history, Quetta chase down 241 runs from just 18.2 overs.
Jason Roy now holds the record for the highest PSL score!
Wednesday evening saw Quetta Gladiators’ batter Jason Roy smash the highest individual score of the Pakistan Super League (PSL).
Roy scored an unbeaten 145 runs to take his side Quetta Gladiators to an eight-wicket win over Zalmi.
He hit 20 fours and five sixes in his innings, with a strike rate of 230.
During the same match, Peshawar Zalmi captain Babar Azam scored a spectacular century, making this the first time in PSL history that two centuries have been scored in one match.
This QG win has pegged Roy as the first foreign cricketer to score two centuries in the PSL.
Fantastic. Exquisite.

Before Roy, Multan Sultans’ Riley Russo scored the fastest century off 43 balls in the 12th match of the tournament between Multan Sultan and Quetta Gladiators.
The English batter earlier also completed a 44-ball century against Peshawar Zalmi, becoming the second-fastest batter to score a century.
In the last season of PSL, Roy also scored 116 runs against Qalandars in Karachi last season.
Well, the tweeps are going crazy over Roy’s latest accomplishment.
