Vaibhav Suryavanshi on Monday created history as 14-year-old batter became the youngest centurion in men’s T20 cricket after smashing a hundred off 35 balls in IPL 2025 for Rajasthan Royals (RR) against Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur
Suryavanshi got to the historic century with a pulled six over midwicket off Rashid Khan. His 35-ball century was the second-quickest hundred in IPL history.
The record of fastest century in IPL belongs to former West Indies batter Chris Gayle, who had brought up his triple figure mark in 30 balls for Royal Challengers Bengaluru against Pune Warriors in April 2013.
However, Suryavanshi has set the record for the fastest century for any Indian in the IPL off 35 balls, bettering Yusuf Pathan’s record of a ton in 37 balls for RR against Mumbai Indians in 2010.

35 balls – Vaibhav Suryavanshi vs GT in 2025
