JAIPUR, India (AP) — The 14-year-old batter Vaibhav Suryavanshi has hit a breathtaking century and one of the greatest innings in not just the Indian Premier League but in men's Twenty20 cricket anywhere.
Just nine days after becoming the youngest debutant in IPL history, Suryavanshi surpassed all expectations again on Monday by hitting a century in his third match and, to boot, the second fastest in the tournament's 18 years.
He got there in just 35 balls by pulling Gujarat Titans spinner Rashid Khan — also the captain of Afghanistan — for a six over the midwicket boundary.
