Players who have reached a century from fewest deliveries.
Note:There have been many more individual centuries that have been scored from few deliveries and would rightly deserve to be listed.
However the recording of Balls Faced in scorebooks is rare and deduction by the statistician is often required, a process that often involves painstaking research and is subject to error.
Consequently the following list does not include all centuries scored.
Taken over all matches played since the beginning of the 1938/39 season.
