In the opening game of a Tri-Series also featuring the Netherlands, Loftie-Eaton smashed a 33-ball ton against Nepal in Kirtipur before being dismissed for 101 from 36 deliveries (11 fours and eight sixes).
The previous record was held by Nepal’s Kushal Malla, who reached a T20I hundred from 34 balls against Mongolia last year.
Namibia posted 206-4 batting first, before Loftie-Eaton also took two wickets as hosts Nepal fell short in their chase, losing by 20 runs.
The three teams competing in the Tri-Series have all qualified for the T20 World Cup to be held in June in the Caribbean and USA.
