Vaibhav Suryavanshi, the 14-year-old sensation, kept getting better. With just fifty-two deliveries, the left-handed opener reached the three-figure milestone, smashing a fast-paced century. The Bihar native, who is renowned for his aggressive, fearless, and fiery stroke play, has already achieved respectable results in the series. The fourth Youth ODI between India Under-19 and England Under-19 at the County Ground in Worcester saw a huge score that was always in the making.

The 14-year-old is still having a good time because he has been playing well in the current series. Suryavanshi was at his very best in Saturday's fourth ODI at Worcester, sending the England bowlers on a leather hunt. In the end, Suryavanshi reached his century off fifty-two balls, which included seven sixes and ten fours.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi Sets the Stage Ablaze:

In the current fourth match of the series, the opposition won the toss and decided to take the field, forcing the Indian team to bat first. Captain Ayush Mhatre, who did not remain at the crease for long, opened with Suryavanshi. The opening partner's confidence was unaffected by Mhatre's comeback on the first ball of the fourth over.

Suryavanshi broke Pakistan's Kamran Ghulam's record, which he had set with his century off 53 balls, and also recorded the fastest century in Men's Youth ODIs during this knock. The teenager made his intentions clear from afar, and the hosts were at a loss for how to stop him. Suryavanshi spared no one, whether they were spinners or seamers, and England was left in astonishment.

With 13 fours and 10 massive maximums in his innings, India was able to take advantage of the situation when they were put in a target position. The 14-year-old had already dazzled everyone with a 35-ball century in the Indian Premier League 2025 while playing for the Rajasthan Royals, and this was his second century. Malhotra, on the other hand, also hit the three-figure mark, but he played a smarter style of play, and the two of them worked in perfect harmony to push the scoreboard to a big total.
