Mon Apr 28 15:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Rajasthan Royals Shatters Records with Suryavanshi’s Blazing Century in IPL Victory

**Jaipur, India** – 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi smashed an unprecedented century in the Rajasthan Royals’ emphatic 8-wicket victory over Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2025. His whirlwind innings of 101 runs off just 35 balls, including 7 fours and 11 sixes, set a new record for the fastest century by an Indian in IPL history, surpassing Yusuf Pathan’s previous record.

Suryavanshi’s blistering performance led Rajasthan to chase down Gujarat’s 209-run target in a mere 15.5 overs, establishing a new record for the fastest 200+ run chase in both IPL and T20 cricket history. He also set a new record for the most sixes hit in an IPL innings by an Indian player. His opening partnership with Yashasvi Jaiswal was equally explosive, accumulating 144 runs in just 10 overs.

Gujarat Titans, despite a strong 84-run knock from captain Shubman Gill and an unbeaten 50 from Jos Buttler, were no match for Suryavanshi’s explosive batting. Rajasthan’s Mahesh Teekshana claimed two wickets for Gujarat.
