O’Brien, who scored the fastest century in World Cup history in 2011 to help Ireland chase down a mammoth 327 to secure a famous win over England in Bangalore, made 82 off 37 balls for Leinster Lightning in the Inter-Provincial Twenty20 Trophy.

After the match, the 36-year-old all-rounder drove the car straight to the garage to get the window replaced.
“Don’t worry @KevinOBrien113 we’ll get it fixed up as good as new,” the dealership said on Twitter.
