The 14-year-old left-handed opener walked out with fearless intent and completely tore apart the UAE bowling attack, setting the perfect start for India U-19 in the tournament. Vaibhav reached his century in only 56 balls, blasting five fours and nine towering sixes on the way.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi falls just short of Ambati Rayudu’s record but smashes his way into Asia Cup history books
The Proteas star had made history with 215 against Zimbabwe in 2025. However, Suryavanshi has now moved to second place on the list of highest individual scores for India in an Under-19 ODI innings, overtaking Shubman Gill, as well as Mayank Agarwal (160) and Raj Bawa (162*). Gill had scored 160 off 157 balls against England U19 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai in 2017.
Well, it was Vaibhav’s second century in Youth ODIs, following his 143 against England earlier this year. Just a few days ago, the 14-year-old became the youngest player to score a century in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy after smashing a brilliant ton for Bihar in the domestic T20 tournament.
