A Historic Day in Indian Domestic Cricket
Wednesday marked a significant milestone in Indian domestic cricket as 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryaanshi from Bihar achieved an extraordinary feat in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, capturing the attention of the cricketing world.
Opening for the Bihar team, led by Sakibul Gani, Suryaanshi displayed an aggressive approach right from the start. He scored a staggering 190 runs off just 84 balls, featuring 16 fours and 15 sixes. His performance was marked by confidence and skill, defying his young age.
With this remarkable innings, Suryaanshi became the first male player to score centuries in both T20 and List A formats before the age of 15. He had previously made headlines with a century in T20 cricket as well.
At just 14 years and 272 days old, he broke the record previously held by Pakistan's Zaheer Iqbal, who scored a century at the age of 15 years and 209 days in 1986. Additionally, Suryaanshi completed his century in just 36 balls, marking the second-fastest century by an Indian player, although this record was later surpassed on the same day.
His innings didn't stop there; he reached 150 runs in 59 balls, breaking AB de Villiers' long-standing record of 64 balls for the same milestone during the 2015 World Cup. Thanks to his explosive batting, Bihar amassed a monumental total of 574 runs, setting a new record for the highest team score in List A cricket.
Overall, Vaibhav Suryaanshi's innings was not just about numbers; it provided a glimpse into the future of Indian cricket, raising hopes for selectors and fans alike.
