Fastest Fifties By Batsmen In ODIs - ONE-DAY INTERNATIONALS

Fastest Fifties By Batsmen In ODIs

A total of 400 or 500 in 50 overs is not a big deal in modern ODI cricket. In recent years we have seen the records of fastest fifties and fastest centuries. However, India has remained untouched by this. Here are India's five fastest half-centuries in ODIs. AB de Villiers holds the record for the fastest 50 runs in ODI cricket, taking only 16 deliveries. It was in South Africa's second match against West Indies in Johannesburg in 2015.
