Jaipur/IBNS: Fourteen-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi's absolute carnage left Gujarat Titans a mute spectator of their crushing defeat in the hands of Rajasthan Royals by eight wickets in March 47 of Indian Premier League (IPL) in Jaipur on Monday.

Vaibhav, the youngest player in the history of IPL, completed his century in only 35 balls powering Rajasthan to dominate the run-chase after Gujarat posted a formidable score of 209-4 in 20 overs.

Vaibhav, a southpaw from Bihar's Samastipur, scored 101 off 38 balls with the support of 7 fours and 11 sixes until a top class yorker by Gujarat bowler Prasidh Krishna dismissed him.

On a day the teenager stole the limelight, his opening partner Yashasvi Jaiswal, who too scored a half-century, stayed till the end as Rajasthan (212-2) chased down the target in only 15.5 overs.

A moment he will never forget! 🩷
