“Vaibhav Suryavanshi”— remember this name for years to come, because today, this 14-year-old boy has achieved something that has never happened before in the history of the IPL. The left-handed Rajasthan Royals (RR) opener smashed a century in just 35 balls, making a bold statement that he is here to stay. Call it what you want — jokes were made about his age, some said he wasn’t really 14, and there was even controversy surrounding it — but if an established 28-year-old player had played such an innings, we would have saluted him too.

Let’s assume that Vaibhav Suryavanshi might not be a 14-year-old kid, maybe he is 15, 16, 17, or 18, or whatever. Still, the way he shows the audacity and the fearless approach is there to see for every cricket fan. In the Rajasthan Royals (RR) vs Gujarat Titans (GT) league stage game in Jaipur, a lot of IPL Records have been made and broken. Today, in this article, we will look into all the IPL Records that were made and broken during the RR vs GT IPL 2025 Match. But firstly, let’s discuss something about this new sensation in the town.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi – A New Sensation Has Arrived

Before the start of the IPL 2025, there was a lot of hype around Vaibhav Suryavanshi and his age. On paper, he is a 14-year-old kid. RR picked him for INR 1.1 crore during the IPL 2025 auction. In the first few games, he didn’t get the opportunity to feature in the playing XI. During the 36^th IPL 2025 league stage match between Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), he made his debut and went on to hit a six off his first ball.

Vaibhav hits a six over cover to Shardul Thakur, on the very first ball of his IPL career. He continues to play the shot and scored 34 runs off 20 balls with 2 fours and 3 sixes. In his 2^nd game (against Royal Challengers Bengaluru), he scored 16 runs off 12 balls, hitting two sixes. Then comes his third IPL innings (against GT), where he scored a 35-ball hundred, becoming the 2^nd fastest and the fastest-ever Indian to score an IPL hundred.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi comes from a generation that didn’t fear to play their shots. He showed a lot of courage, audacity, fearlessness, and whatever word you wanted to use for this left-hander. Playing with that much freedom in his third innings shows his ability. He has had his chances, but he makes full use of his day. Unfortunately, it looks a bit difficult for RR to reach the IPL 2025 playoffs at the moment. But we still have four league stage matches to see more of Vaibhav Suryavanshi.

RR vs GT IPL 2025 Highlights Summary

Before Vaibhav’s explosiveness, RR won the toss and chose to bowl first. Their decision didn’t look good as GT were off to a great start. The GT openers added 93 runs in 10.2 overs. GT captain Shubman Gill continues his good form, and Jos Buttler joins him at the crease. The pair added 74 runs for the 2^nd wicket. Gill scored 84 off 50 balls, and Buttler scored an unbeaten 50 off 26 balls. GT scored 209 runs on the board in the first inning.

When RR openers came out to bat, they made a mockery of this run chase. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Vaibhav Suryavanshi added 87 runs in the first six overs. There was an attack from both ends, but Vaibhav’s inning outshone Jaiswal’s blitz. In just 11.5 overs, the openers added 166 runs before Prasidh Krishna broke the partnership.

Vaibhav scored 101 runs off 38 balls with 7 fours and 11 sixes. Yashasvi Jaiswal remains unbeaten on 70 off 40 balls. Riyan Parag also played a cameo of 32* off 15 balls.
