Vaibhav Suryavanshi Shatters Yusuf Pathan’s Record with Magical IPL Century

Vaibhav Suryavanshi Breaks Yusuf Pathan’s IPL Record

Vaibhav Suryavanshi, the 14-year-old sensation from Bihar, delivered a historic performance for Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur, smashing the fastest-ever IPL century by an Indian. His explosive 101 off just 38 balls, featuring 11 sixes and 7 fours, powered Rajasthan Royals to a stunning eight-wicket win over Gujarat Titans.

Chasing a big target of 210 runs, Rajasthan Royals completed the chase in just 15.5 overs, snapping their losing streak in style at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium.

Yusuf Pathan’s Magical Reaction to Vaibhav’s Record

Yusuf Pathan, whose record stood for 15 years, was full of praise for the young star. Pathan, who had also scored his record century while playing for Rajasthan Royals back in 2010, tweeted:

“Many congratulations to young Vaibhav Suryavanshi for breaking my record of the fastest IPL hundred by an Indian! Even more special to see it happen while playing for Rajasthan Royals, just like I did. There’s truly something magical about this franchise for youngsters. Long way to go, champ!”

The emotional message from the IPL legend made Vaibhav’s achievement even more special for fans and the cricketing world.

“It Is Like a Dream,” Says Vaibhav Suryavanshi

After the match, Vaibhav called his century “like a dream come true”. Speaking about his fearless approach, he said:

“There is no fear. I don’t think much, I just focus on playing. I just see the ball and play.”

Facing top bowlers like Rashid Khan, Mohammed Siraj, Ishant Sharma, and Washington Sundar, Vaibhav showed no nerves and played with incredible maturity.

His IPL journey, which began just nine days ago with a six, has already turned into a historic story, as he also became the youngest-ever batter to score a T20 century, surpassing Vijay Zol’s previous record.

Vaibhav eventually fell to Prasidh Krishna, but walked off to a standing ovation from the home crowd and his teammates — a moment he will cherish forever.
