Vaibhav Suryavanshi: 14-year-old Indian makes List A century

This is the latest achievement in a record-breaking year for Suryavanshi, who first shot to global fame in April when he smashed his first ball in the Indian Premier League for six.

He then became the youngest player to hit a century in men’s T20s when he made a 35-ball hundred for Rajasthan Royals against Gujarat Titans.

It was also the second-fastest century in IPL history behind Chris Gayle’s 30-ball ton in 2013.

In July, he struck the fastest recorded century in a youth one-day international, making 143 from 78 balls as India beat England by 55 runs at Worcester.

He took 52 balls to reach three figures, bettering Kamran Ghulam’s 53-ball effort for Pakistan against England in 2013.

Four months later, he struck a 32-ball century in India A’s victory against the United Arab Emirates in their Asia Cup Rising Stars T20 match – the joint-fifth fastest hundred in all men’s T20s. He was eventually dismissed for 144 from 42 balls.
