Delhi: When Vaibhav Suryavanshi made his batting debut in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, he had already created history. He had become the youngest player to play the youngest in the IPL, and after that he surprised everyone and hit the fast bowler Shardul Thakur on the very first ball of his career. In his first match, he played a bang of 34 runs in 20 balls, which was a short glimpse of the time to come.
Vaibhav again wrote history in his third IPL match on Monday. He scored a stormy century in just 35 balls, which is the fastest century in IPL by any Indian player. Not only this, he also became the youngest player to score a century in T20 cricket at the age of 14.
Amid the happiness of his first IPL century, Vaibhav recalled the sacrifices of his father Sanjeev and mother Aarti, who always showed him the right direction to realize the dream of cricket.
Vaibhav said in an interview, “Whatever I am, I am because of my parents. My practice wakes up at 2 o’clock after sleeping at 11 o’clock at night and cooks for me. She barely sleeps for three hours. My father has left his job to help me. My elder brother is taking care of the house and my father is moving very hard, but father is going home, but my father is going home, but my father
He further said, “God never lets those who work hard, the results that are coming and the success that is getting is because of my parents.”
It was not a big deal for Vaibhav to hit a six on the first ball of his career. The opener said, “This was a normal thing for me. I have played for India’s Under-19 team and at the domestic level too, I have also hit sixes on the first ball. I did not come with the pressure to play 10 balls first. It was clear in my mind that if the ball came in my radar, I will kill him.”
He further said, “It was not that I was thinking that this is my first match. Yes, there was an international bowler in front and the stage was big, but I was just playing my game.”
Vaibhav, who belongs to Samastipur in Bihar, was born three years after the IPL began, and that is why he is the first player to be born after the birth of the league, who has scored a century in this tournament.
