2. AB De Villiers: 162* Versus West Indies, 2015

Having smashed a world record century versus them earlier in the year, South Africa's AB de Villiers continued his domination of the West Indies as he hit the second-fastest ton in the World Cup's history. Coming in at number five, de Villiers blitzed his ton from 52 balls and reached his 150 just 12 balls later as the Proteas captain struck 17 fours and 8 sixes in a display of staggering hitting and wonderful improvisation. The West Indies crumbled to 151 all out - 11 less than AB's whirlwind knock - with leg-spinner Imran Tahir taking 5-45.
