Vaibhav Suryavanshi made history on December 24, 2025, in his very first match in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. He scored the second-fastest century in List A cricket by an Indian player.

 

 

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. He completed his century with a single off the first ball of the 12th over.

 

 

Fastest centuries in List A cricket:

Jake Fraser-McGurk - 29 balls

 

AB de Villiers - 31 balls

 

Anmolpreet Singh - 35 balls

 

Corey Anderson - 36 balls

 

Vaibhav Suryavanshi - 36 balls

 

 

Vaibhav Suryavanshi creates a record.

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?

With this innings, Vaibhav has surpassed several big names. Yusuf Pathan, who scored a century in 40 balls in 2010, is now behind Vaibhav. Besides him, Vaibhav has also overtaken Urvil Patel and Abhishek Sharma. Vaibhav broke the records of Urvil Patel (41 balls) and Abhishek Sharma (42 balls).

 

 

It is worth noting that the record for the fastest century in List A cricket for India is still held by Anmolpreet Singh. Vaibhav missed this big record in List A cricket by just two balls.

 

 

Anmolpreet scored a century in just 35 balls while playing for Punjab last year. Vaibhav missed equaling his record by just one ball.

 

 

Bihar Team Schedule

The Bihar team is playing its first match against Arunachal Pradesh today in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025-26. The team's second match will be against Manipur on December 26.

 

 

On December 29, the Bihar team will play against Meghalaya. Bihar's fourth match in this tournament will be against Nagaland, and this match will be played on December 31.  Following that, the Bihar team will face Mizoram on January 3.

 

 

Vaibhav Flops Against Pakistan

In the Under-19 Asia Cup 2025, Vaibhav Suryavanshi's bat only fired against weaker teams. Vaibhav played a knock of 171 runs against the UAE, but after that, he proved ineffective against other teams. Vaibhav's bat also remained silent against Pakistan. In the tournament, Vaibhav scored 261 runs in 5 matches at an average of 52.20, which included one century and one half-century.
