Across the past year in T20 internationals, from December 2024 to December 2025, Bennett has piled up 1,113 runs at a strike rate of 145.48 while averaging an impressive 36. Those figures place him among the most productive young batters in the format, and they have propelled him to a career-high ranking of 21st on the ICC T20 batting chart, the highest any Zimbabwean batter has climbed in recent years.
What makes Bennett’s rise even more extraordinary is his place in the history books. The Zimbabwean opener has become the youngest cricketer ever to score centuries in all three international formats, a milestone that underlines both his versatility and temperament.
