Jos Buttler has become the all-time leading run scorer in Twenty20 cricket, smashing an explosive 51 from just 20 balls to fire Manchester Super Giants to a nine-wicket win over Welsh Fire in the Men's Hundred on Wednesday evening.
The England wicketkeeper-batter's blistering cameo carried him past every other player in the format's history, cementing his status as one of the finest short-format hitters the game has produced.
As BBC Sport reported, the knock also lifted Super Giants up to third in the Men's Hundred table, keeping their qualification hopes firmly on track.
The record caps a remarkable chapter for a batter whose fearless approach has repeatedly rewritten what is possible at the top of a T20 innings, and it slots neatly alongside the country's other white-ball milestones, a moment to rank among the greatest moments in British sporting history.
Attention now turns to whether Super Giants can convert their improved position into a knockout berth, with Buttler's form shaping up as the difference-maker. Follow all the latest reaction on JOE's sport desk.
