Fifteen-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi struck a blistering 93 to power Rajasthan Royals to a seven-wicket win over Lucknow Super Giants on Tuesday to boost their play-off hopes in the IPL.

India’s teenage sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi became the youngest and fastest batter to hit 100 sixes in T20 cricket, even though his Indian Premier League (IPL) side Rajasthan Royals suffered a crushing 77-run defeat to Gujarat Titans in Jaipur yesterday.

Fifteen-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi tore the Royal Challengers Bengaluru bowling to shreds on his way to equalling his own record for the fastest fifty of this season's IPL, powering unbeaten Rajasthan Royals to a fourth successive victory, by six wickets, on Friday.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi was hailed as "amazing" and "fearless" after the 15-year-old underlined his rare talent with an audacious display against superstar Indian bowler Jasprit Bumrah in the IPL.

Former India players Mohammad Kaif and Piyush Chawla would love to see Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, who turned 15 on Friday, fast-tracked into India's Twenty20 squad following the teen's latest heroics in the Indian Premier League (IPL).
