Move over, legends! There’s a new king in the IPL, and he’s just 14 years old! Vaibhav Suryavanshi has sent shockwaves through the cricketing world, outshining 58 of the biggest names in IPL history to claim the coveted number one spot. You might be wondering, which 58 batsmen are we talking about? These are none other than all the players who have smashed a century in the Indian Premier League! Yes, the young sensation has managed to top a list filled with cricketing giants, proving that age is truly just a number when it comes to raw talent and audacious hitting.

Vaibhav’s remarkable feat didn’t come from the fastest century or the highest score, but from an incredible display of boundary-hitting prowess. In IPL 2025, playing against the Gujarat Titans, the left-handed batsman hammered a sensational century off just 35 balls. His innings of 101 runs from 38 balls, at an astonishing strike rate of 265.78, included 7 fours and 11 sixes. This means a staggering 94 runs of his century came solely from boundaries, translating to a record-breaking 93% of his runs from fours and sixes! This incredible boundary percentage has shattered the previous record held by his own teammate and opening partner, Yashasvi Jaiswal, who scored 90% of his runs from boundaries during his century against Mumbai Indians in IPL 2023. Following them are Sri Lankan legend Sanath Jayasuriya (89% in IPL 2008) and Adam Gilchrist (88% in IPL 2008), further cementing Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s position at the pinnacle of this unique record.
