During the fourth India U19 vs England U19 match, Vaibhav Suryavanshi broke the record for the fastest century in Youth ODI history at Worcester on Saturday, 5 July 2025. The 14-year-old batter reached his century in just 52 deliveries, hitting seven sixes and 10 boundaries.
His performance shattered the previous record held by Pakistan’s Kamran Ghulam, who had scored a 53-ball century against England U19 in 2013.
Suryavanshi has been in fine form in the England U19 tour, hitting an 86-run knock off 31 balls – the third-fastest half-century in IND U19 history – in the third Youth ODI match. He is the current leading run-scorer for India.
This is the second record that Suryavanshi has broken in youth internationals. In 2024, he scored a 56-ball century against Australia U19 in Chennai, marking the second-fastest hundred in Youth Test history, behind the legendary Moeen Ali.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi has become a household name of late, ever since making his Indian Premier League (IPL) debut for Rajasthan Royals. He did not take long to establish himself among the big boys, hitting a 35-ball hundred against Gujarat Titans – making him the second-fastest as well as the youngest centurion in IPL history.
