Vaibhav Suryavanshi, 14, Scores Historic 35-Ball Century in IPL

Rajasthan Royals' 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi made history by becoming the youngest player to score a century in men's T20 cricket, achieving the feat in just 35 balls during an Indian Premier League match against Gujarat Titans. His 101 from 38 deliveries included 11 sixes and seven fours, breaking multiple records, such as the fastest IPL century by an Indian and the second-fastest in tournament history behind Chris Gayle. Suryavanshi's innings surpassed previous age records for both IPL fifty and hundred by significant margins, and he was greeted with applause and respect from both teammates and opponents as he left the field. The Rajasthan Royals secured an eight-wicket victory, with Suryavanshi's explosive performance overshadowing other contributions, including a notable 50 not out by Jos Buttler for the Titans. The achievement marks a significant milestone, as Suryavanshi is the first player born after the IPL's inception to make a century in the tournament. His record-breaking display has earned him widespread acclaim and the nickname 'Boss Baby' among fans.
