Vaibhav Suryavanshi Becomes Youngest List A Centurion With 36-Ball Ton During Arunchal Pradesh Vs Bihar VHT 2025-26

Bihar have opted to bat first against Arunachal Pradesh in their Plate Group clash at the JSCA Oval Ground in Ranchi, aiming to set a big total and put pressure on their opponents from the outset. The Bihar batting lineup features a blend of experience and emerging talent, with players like Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Sakibul Gani (c) and Mangal Mahrour expected to anchor the innings and provide a strong start.

Suryavanshi continued his destructive form and produced a stunning 36-ball century for Bihar against Arunachal Pradesh, one of the fastest in List A cricket and a historic achievement for someone so young.

At just 14 years and 272 days, he became the youngest centurion in men’s List A cricket while also registering the second-fastest hundred by an Indian batter in the format, overshadowing even big names and proving that his talent is for real.

The 14-year-old races to the fourth-fastest List A century, finishing just one ball shy of the Indian record. Only Jake Fraser-McGurk, AB de Villiers, and Anmolpreet Singh have reached three figures quicker in professional 50-over cricket.

Alongside his domestic feats, he has also represented India in under-19 competitions and earned recognition in franchise cricket, including a stint with the Rajasthan Royals, further cementing his status as a precocious talent to watch in the years ahead.

Let's Breakdown Suryavanshi's knock

With the pitch at Ranchi expected to offer a fair balance between bat and ball, Bihar’s decision to bat first suggests they are confident of posting a challenging total and then leveraging their bowling resources to control the game. Arunachal Pradesh, on the other hand, will look to bounce back from earlier domestic struggles and make the most of their opportunities with both bat and ball.
