9. Sanath Jayasuriya:

At number 9 in the list of Fastest 15 Centuries in ODI is former Sri Lanka skipper Sanath Jayasuriya. He was a menace for bowlers in his playing days. The fact that he is in this list for a knock that came before this millennium pretty much proves how dangerous he was.
Jayasuriya is occupying this position for his 48-ball century against Pakistan in 1996 Singer Cup. As a result of his knock, Sri Lanka scored a mammoth 349 for 9. In reply, Pakistan gave a spirited fight but could manage 315.
