Harry Brook hit his maiden Indian Premier League century with 100 not out off 55 balls for Sunrisers Hyderabad against Kolkata Knight Riders.
The England batter, 24, smacked 12 fours and three sixes in a sublime knock to bring up his second T20 ton.
The Yorkshireman is the first batter to hit a century in this year's IPL and is the fifth England batter in history to achieve the feat.
"My girlfriend is here but the rest of my family have just left," said Brook.
"I knew this would happen - as soon as they left I will get some runs. I'm sure they'll all be very happy for me."
