Playing just his third IPL match, Suryavanshi shattered a stack of records with an inspired century against Gujarat Titans at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Monday. The 14-year-old batter scripted history with a 35-ball century, which is the fastest by an Indian player in the IPL and the second-fastest of all time.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
At 14 years and 32 days old, Suryavanshi scored a sensational 101 off just 38 balls against GT to become the youngest player to score a century in the IPL and T20 cricket as a whole.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"Vaibhav was just 8 years old when he came to us. It was me and my fellow coach, Manish Kumar, who began working with him. We put in a lot of hard work - but Vaibhav has worked harder than any of us. A coach doesn\u2019t make a great player; it is the player who makes a coach great. And Vaibhav is one such player,\" Singh said on Star Sports.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Suryavanshi's coach also praised his father Sanjeev Suryavanshi for his steadfast belief in his son's exceptional talent, which has been instrumental in shaping the young cricketer's journey.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"His father, Sanjeev Suryavanshi, was the first person to truly recognise that spark. Four times a week, without fail, he would bring Vaibhav all the way from Samastipur to Patna - just so his son could train. That kind of dedication deserves a salute. Sanjeev was the very first to believe in Vaibhav\u2019s talent,\" he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Almost a fortnight ago, the tennager became the youngest player to make his IPL debut. The 14-year-old announced his arrival with a six off the very first ball he faced against Lucknow Super Giants. The young left-hander scored a brisk 34 off just 20 deliveries, including two boundaries and three towering sixes on his IPL debut.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
