Cricket crazy

Honesty and Perseverance were watching a game of cricket when an interesting scenario surfaced. The two batsmen X and Y were playing on 98 runs and 94 runs respectively. Both wanted to score a century but their team required only 3 runs to win the match with only 2 balls remaining. It is given that X was on strike and both eventually made a century to win the match. There were no extra deliveries (no-balls/wide) bowled.

How is this possible?

X hits and runs 3 but he didn complete the second run(not properly creased bat) so only 2 runs count.. and X completes century.... since d batsman crossed only 2 counts..
Y hits maximum(6) and completes his TON..........
