The 14-year-old Vaibhav was playing for Bihar in a Plate Group match of the Vijay Hazare Trophy against Arunachal Pradesh at the JSCA Oval Ground in Ranchi. Vaibhav completed his century in just 36 balls. Vaibhav is also the vice-captain of the Bihar team. He has hit 10 fours and 8 sixes in his innings so far.

In the history of One Day International (List A) cricket, Vaibhav has now become the joint fourth-fastest batsman to score a century. He has equaled New Zealand's Corey Anderson. This is the second-fastest century in List A cricket by an Indian batsman.
Which legendary players did he surpass?
