He took 45 balls to reach 100, he remained not out at the end of the match with T20 high score of 117* including 13 sixes and 5 fours. Now He has the record of having the most runs by boundaries in a t20 match. NZ scored 173 in 20 overs, SA reached the target of 174 in just 16 overs with 8 wickets left.

Hi Ramaswamim This is indeed a great feat. Out India six hitters would be inspired or despaired with this new record I do not know but one thing is sure that in T20 Richard Levi is not sealed with his record for it would be broken sooner or later.

Now the series has become interesting. surely this is the fastest in t20, but afridi's record in odi is not beaten till now. The surprising fact is that R levi hit the ton in his second match, surely an upcoming talent for SA.

Yes, he played well and there is no doubt that he did it with full confidence. One can not say that it was a fluke. We are expecting more such innings from him.
