Vaibhav Suryavashi etched his name in the history books during the Rajasthan Royals' (RR) clash against the Gujarat Titans (GT) in the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) clash at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Monday (April 28).

As RR walked out to chase a massive total of 210 in a must-win clash, the 14-year-old gave RR a quick start as they put 87 runs in the powerplay. The youngsters managed to outscore star Indian batter Yashasvi Jaiswal and completed his half-century in just 17 balls to shatter the record books.

Suryavanshi hit the fastest IPL half-century of the 2025 edition and the youngest-ever in IPL history. Infact, he is the first U-17 and second U-18 player to reach the milestone in the league's history. Suryavanshi broke a record held by Royals stand-in skipper Riyan Parag. Royals' permanent captain Sanju Samson, who the left-handed batter replaced in the playing XI is joint third on the list.

Suryavanshi later completed a 35-ball century, which is the second quickest in IPL history behind Chris Gayle (31 balls) and broke Manish Pandey's 16-year-old record to become the youngest player to score an IPL century.. He is also the first player younger than 18 to score a century in T20 cricket history, breaking Indian batter Vijay Zol's record (18-year-old)

Suryavanshi is the quickest Indian player to score an IPL century, going past Yusuf Pathan, who hit a 37-ball ton for RR against Mumbai Indians. This is also the fastest century by an uncapped player in IPL history, a record set by Priyansh Arya (39) a few days back against Chennai Super Kings.

Suryavanshi also broke Parag and Abhishek Sharma's record for the most runs by a player before turning 18 in IPL's history. Both had hit five sixes while aged 17, while Suryavanshi has crossed that milestone. Suryanshi has remarkably entered the double-digit list. Only five players in IPL history have hit a maximum before turning an adult.

Suryavanshi also has the most sixes by a player in an innings at the age of 18, breaking a record set by Dewald Brevis (5) in 2022 during a match by Mumbai Indians (MI) against Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Pune. With nine sixes, he equalled Rishabh Pant (9) for the most sixes in an innings by a U-21 player.

Suryavanshi is also the first U-17 player in T20 cricket history to score more than 10 career sixes. Previously, the record was with Ayush Awasti, who hit 10 sixes at the age of 15.

Suryavanshi was dismissed after making a 38-ball 101 as RR won the match by eight wickets with 25 balls to spare. The 14-year-old was awarded the Player of the Match (POTM) and is the youngest in IPL History to win the elusive prize.
