Introduction to Vaibhav Suryavanshi
The Indian Batter Vaibhav Suryavanshi was the youngest player who met a senior T20 century on Monday with a few years and 32 days. The teenager had already written history in November 2024 when he was the youngest player at the age of 13, who was sold at the annual auction of the Indian Premier League (IPL) in which the teams fight for players.
Tumble Records
On April 19, Suryavanshi gave his Ipl debut for the Rajasthan Royals – he was the youngest player who was seen in the tournament – and announced himself with style when he met a six of the first ball to whom he was confronted. Nine days later he broke several records when he achieved the second fastest hundred in the history of the competition, with only 35 balls reaching the milestone.
Reaction to the Achievement
"It feels really good," said Suryavanshi. "It is like a dream to achieve a century in the IPL. The result shows what I have practiced in the past three or four months."
"I only see the ball and the game. It was a dream to get a 100 in the IPL, and today he has materialized. There is no fear. I don’t think much, I only concentrate on playing."
Performance in the IPL
He made a contract for the lucrative T20 tournament last November when he was sold for the eight-week competition to the Royals for 11 million rupees (approximately 125,000 euros). In just his third game of the IPL, he shared a 166-run opening stand with Yashasvi Jaiswal, 70 not from 40 balls, on the way to his score of 101.
