When I was 14 years old, I was clicking on selfie using retrica and B612 and posting Facebook status like ‘with 5 others in Pacific Mall’. pic.twitter.com/x8eiyyyyy3cmr

Although Suryavanshi showed that he has a deep arsenal of cricketing shots, he was not a man of many words, and at this age it makes sense after keeping the entire country on notice. He talked about how he is afraid to take big names

“This is a very good feeling. This is my first hundred in the IPL and this is my third innings. The result is shown here after practice before the tournament. I just look and play the ball. It is good to bat with Jaiswal, he tells me what he has to do and he is a dream that I am dreaming.

Suryavanshi’s 101 -run innings, which saw him breaking 11 large -scale sixes and seven borders, he was left behind Manish Pandey (19y 253D), Rishabh Pant (20y 218D) and Devdutt Padikkal (20y 289D) and saw that he snected the record of the youngest center in the tournament.

It is also the second fastest century in the tournament, only behind Chris Gayle, who did it in 30 delivery, and the fastest century by an Indian, crossing the 37 delivery record of Yusuf Pathan,
