14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi scripts history as youngest batter to score IPL century

Vaibhav Suryavanshi has become the newest batting sensation after he scripted history on April 28, by becoming the youngest batter ever to score an IPL century at the age of 14 years in Jaipur.

The Rajasthan Royals’ batter, Suryavanshi brought up his whirlwind ton off only 35 balls with a whopping 11 sixes and seven fours, recording the second fastest century in the history of IPL. He was finally out for 101 off 37 balls.

His stunning knock came against IPL 2022 winners Gujarat Titans, who had set a target of 210 for Rajasthan Royals to win.

The record of fastest century in IPL belongs to former West Indies batter Chris Gayle, who had brought up his triple figure mark in 30 balls for Royal Challengers Bengaluru against Pune Warriors in April 2013.
