Vaibhav Suryavanshi, playing for the Rajasthan Royals, entered history books with a 35-ball century against the Gujarat Titans. His 101 came off only 38 balls and was the fastest ton in IPL for any Indian.
In seven matches during the ongoing season, Vaibhav made 252 runs at an average of 36.00, with a strike rate of over 206.55.
His performance garnered acclaim from all quarters, with Rajasthan Royals skipper Sanju Samson stating that his century against Gujarat Titans was “sheer class”.
“I don’t have words for Vaibhav. The hundred he got was sheer class. He can hit a slower ball over cover. Today, when the middle overs were going on, he was doing his job very smartly. He has game at such a young age, which is commendable,” Samson said, according to reports.
