A 14-year-old Indian boy named Vaibhav Suryavanshi made cricket history on Saturday. He scored 100 runs faster than any other young player ever in an ODI match. Playing against England’s under-19 team, he hit the ball all over the field. He made 143 runs from just 78 balls, with 13 shots that went to the boundary and 10 that cleared it completely.
No one has ever scored a century so quickly in youth ODI cricket before. Vaibhav did this after India lost their captain early in the game. He then batted with his friend Vihaan and together they added 219 runs. Vihaan stayed not out at 100 runs when people wrote about the match. India had scored 290 runs and lost 4 wickets in 40 overs.
This young boy has been playing amazingly all through this series. In the first three matches, he scored fast runs every time – 48 from 19 balls, 45 from 34 balls, and 86 from 31 balls. Everyone first saw his talent in this year’s IPL where he hit a six on his very first ball. In that tournament, he made 252 runs total, hitting the ball very hard and fast. His best was when he scored 100 runs in just 35 balls against Gujarat Titans – the second fastest century in IPL history.
Vaibhav got out later in the match, and India lost two more wickets quickly. But India still looked strong in the game. If they win this match, they will be ahead 3-1 in the five-match series and can’t lose it now.
What makes Vaibhav special is his age – only 14 years old! He isn’t just breaking records, he’s showing what young players can do. His great playing makes people think he could become a big star for India one day. Cricket fans and experts are all talking about this talented boy.
Vaibhav hits the ball very hard but stays calm when it matters. This is rare for someone so young. Many people are excited to see how good he can become. His success gives hope that Indian cricket has found a future star who might play for the national team for many years. The way he plays makes everyone watching feel happy and proud.
