Vaibhav Sooryavanshi scores his maiden half-century for the India National Cricket Team. On July 23 against the Zimbabwe National Cricket Team, the 15-year-old opener registers his first-ever fifty-run knock for Team India.
On the first ball of the seventh over of the second innings, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi completed his half-century by stealing a double off the Zimbabwe bowler Richard Ngarava. The batter endures only 18 balls to touch the fifty-run mark.
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi gets his first-ever half-century for India in T20I
With the half-century, the teenage sensation creates a record: the record for scoring a maiden T20I fifty at the age of only 15. It is the same venue, the Harare Sports Complex, where Vaibhav Sooryavanshi registered a century for the India Under-19 team in the final match. Months later, in the same place, the batter claims his maiden half-century for the senior cricket team.

He smashed four 4s and four 6s to complete the half-century. However, on the very next ball after completing the fifty, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi lost his wicket. The story knocks came to an end with 50 runs from 19 balls.
The 18-ball half-century looks more magical as the young prodigy breaks another record of legendary Sachin Tendulkar. Sachin Tendulkar scripted his first-ever half-century in international cricket at the age of 16 when India was against Pakistan in Faisalabad for a Test match in 1989.
