Brisbane, Sep 24
Indian teenage prodigy Vaibhav Suryavanshi shattered the record for the most career sixes in Youth ODI cricket during his 70-run knock off 68 balls in the second India U-19 vs Australia U-19 50-over match at the Ian Healy Oval on Wednesday.
Suryavanshi’s innings was studded with five fours and six sixes. His fourth maximum of the day took him past former India U-19 skipper Unmukt Chand’s tally of 38 from 21 matches.
Earlier this year, Suryavanshi finished as the top run-scorer in the five-match India U19 vs England U19 Youth ODI 2025 series, accumulating 355 runs in five matches at an average of 71.00 and an impressive strike rate of 174.01.
After becoming the youngest player ever to go down the hammer at the IPL 2025 auction, Suryavanshi also became the youngest centurion in IPL history after smashing a 35-ball 100 for Rajasthan Royals against the Gujarat Titans. The youngster finished IPL 2025 with 252 runs in seven matches at a blistering strike rate of 206.56, which earned him the Super Striker of the Season award
