(Reuters) -Mitch Owen blasted the Big Bash League's equal-fastest hundred on Monday to deliver Hobart Hurricanes their first T20 title, securing a seven-wicket victory against Sydney Thunder in the 14th tournament final at Bellerive Oval.

Thunder posted a competitive 182-7 from 20 overs after being sent in but Owen's 108-run blitzkrieg off 42 balls ensured the hosts quickly assumed a commanding position in their reply, cruising to 185-3 with 35 balls remaining.
