The prodigious left-hander produced another top innings, scoring an unbeaten 61-ball 108 to power Bihar to 176/3 at the end of their 20 overs. It was also the teenager’s maiden ton in the T20 domestic cricket tournament and third overall in the format.

 5. 42-ball 144 in Rising Stars Asia Cup vs UAE

The teenage Indian prodigy smashed a superb 32-ball century to take down the UAE in the Rising Stars Asia Cup 2025. Notably, the 14-year-old had a chance to score his maiden double century in T20 cricket, but he was eventually dismissed for an unimaginable 42-ball 144.

6. 95-ball 171 in U19 Asia Cup 2025 vs UAE

Another day, another ton for Vaibhav Suryavanshi. Opening for India in the U19 Asia Cup clash against the UAE, the 14-year-old scored a stroke-filled century. 

He reached his fifty in just 30 balls and then completed his ton in 56 balls. There was no stopping Suryavanshi, as he raced to the 150-mark off 84 balls. Eventually, ending his innings at 171 off 95. His knock, full of 14 sixes and 9 fours, lit up the inaugural game of the tournament.
