**Galle, Sri Lanka –** Australian batsman Josh Inglis smashed a breathtaking century on his Test debut against Sri Lanka on Thursday, reaching the milestone in a mere 90 balls. His impressive innings, a whirlwind 102 off 93 deliveries, is the second-fastest Test century by a debutant in Australian history.
Inglis, a right-hander from Western Australia, dominated the Sri Lankan bowling attack throughout his innings. His achievement continues a remarkable trend for Western Australian players, following in the footsteps of Adam Voges, Shaun Marsh, and Marcus North, who also scored centuries on their Test debuts. Inglis is the 21st Australian to reach a century on debut.
The day also saw Usman Khawaja achieve a personal milestone, becoming the first Australian to score a double century in Sri Lanka with a score of 232. The impressive performances from both batsmen have put Australia in a strong position in the first Test.
