Suryavanshi has now scored 540 runs in Youth ODIs, of which more than a quarter (26%) have come from boundaries. He currently has 41 sixes to his name. Among Indians, after Suryavanshi and Chand, Yashasvi Jaiswal has the most maximums in Youth One-Day cricket. Jaiswal, now an established name in the Indian set-up, struck 30 sixes in the 27 matches he played between 2018 and 2020.

Record-breaker

Just 14, Suryavanshi already has numerous records to his name; he recently became the youngest player to feature in the Indian Premier League, where he went on to score the second-fastest century in the league’s history while also becoming its youngest centurion.

Hailing from Samastipur, Suryavanshi has already made history with his extraordinary achievements. During the 2023-24 Ranji Trophy season, he debuted at just 12 years and 284 days against Mumbai, becoming the youngest player in the tournament’s history.

He also hammered the fastest Youth ODI hundred off just 52 balls, bettering the world record previously held by Pakistan’s Kamran Ghulam, who scored a 53-ball century in 2019. In the same innings, he broke the Indian record for the most sixes in a single match (10).

At 13 years and 188 days, he became the youngest centurion in the 170-year history of competitive cricket. He also set the record for the fastest century by an Indian at the youth level with a 58-ball hundred against Australia in the 1st Youth Test in Chennai. This blistering 58-ball century stands as the second-fastest ever at this level, just behind England’s Moeen Ali, who achieved the feat in 56 balls.
