Despite being labeled as one of the most destructive batters in T20 cricket, Chris Lynn hasn't often found himself playing regularly. Yet, whenever Lynn does get a chance, he makes sure that it is a memorable one. 

The Australian batter has made his debut for Northamptonshire in this season's T20 blast and in his fourth game of the season, Lynn smacked a century - his third in T20s - to lead Northants to a 42-run win over Leicestershire. 

Lynn's 106 came in just 66 balls with the help of 12 fours and three sixes. It was a well-timed inning as he started cautiously and only took on bowlers when he set his eye in post powerplay. Lynn added 109 runs for the first wicket with fellow opener Ben Curran, who scored 31. 

After that, fresh from IPL, James Neesham joined Lynn at the crease and added another 118 runs off just 58 balls for the second wicket to get Northants to post 227/1 in the first inning. While Lynn remained unbeaten on 106, Neesham smacked 75 in 30 balls on his debut for Northamptonshire. 

It wasn't the first time in his debut season for Northamptonshire that 'Lynnsanity' had arrived in the T20 Blast. Lynn smacked a 46-ball-83 in his second match of the season with the help of eight sixes and four fours.

Chris Lynn, 32, recently parted ways with Big Bash League franchise Brisbane Heats after 11 long years. Apparently, Lynn - the leading run-scorer of BBL - wasn't offered a new contract by the Heats and is now looking for a new franchise before the season begins later this year.
