Vaibhav Suryavanshi is on fire. Before heading to England, he smashed 190 runs in just 90 balls at the BCCI’s Center of Excellence in Bengaluru. The 14-year-old cricketer hit sixes and fours all over the field.
This kid’s been making waves since his IPL debut. He scored a century in 35 balls against the Gujarat Titans, becoming the fastest Indian to do so in IPL history. The Rajasthan Royals bought him for 1.10 crore.
Now, Vaibhav’s part of India’s under-19 squad for the England tour. The team, led by Ayush Mhatre, will play a 50-over practice match and a five-match one-day series against England’s under-19 team. They’ll also play two multi-day matches.
Vaibhav’s not the only exciting player on the team. The squad includes Abhijyan Kundu, Harvansh Singh, and RS Ambarish, among others.
Fans are already cheering them on. As Varun Giri tweeted, “Vaibhav Suryavanshi smashed 190 runs off just 90 balls in a NCA practice match!”
