Raina joins T20 hundred club
India's Suresh Raina became only the third batsman to score a Twenty20 international century when he made 101 against South Africa on Sunday.

Raina's century, off 59 balls, was the centrepiece of India's total of 186 for five in the first innings of their World Twenty20 Group C match against the Proteas at the Beausejour Stadium.

Only West Indies' Chris Gayle and New Zealand's Brendon McCullum had previously scored hundreds at this level.
