How Vaibhav Suryavanshi Scored a 100 in Just 35 Balls?

When you hear “IPL,” you think of giants.
Kohli. Dhoni. Rohit Sharma.
Legends who built their names brick by brick.

But this year — something unbelievable happened.

A boy, barely in his teens — Vaibhav Suryavanshi, just 14 years old — smashed a century in just 35 balls.
Fastest in the season. Fastest among players twice his age.
Fastest by someone you’d never expect.

This wasn’t just a cricket match.
This was mindset on full display.
A live demonstration that belief beats biology, and that dreams aren’t owned by adults anymore.

It Was a Preparation Meeting Opportunity.

At 14, most kids are figuring out who they are.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi already decided:
“I am a champion.”

Before Rajasthan Royals picked him, before he entered the fierce stage of GT vs RR, Vaibhav had already visualized it.
Day after day, he trained like he belonged to the big leagues.
When the moment came, he didn’t “hope” — he expected to deliver.

And he did.
35 balls. 100 runs. History made!

Mindset Shift 1: He Played Like It Was Already His

Imagine the courage it takes to stand in a packed stadium, with bowlers gunning for you, millions watching live — and you’re only 14.

Most would shrink.
Vaibhav grew taller.

He didn’t think “I’m lucky to be here.”
He thought,
“This is where I belong. This is what I’ve prepared for.”

Mindset was created in that century. Not a chance.

Mindset Shift 2: His Only Competition Was Himself

One of Vaibhav’s old coaches said,

Vaibhav never cared about who he was playing against. His real match was always against his own limits.

While facing Gujarat Titans’ senior bowlers — players with years of IPL and international experience — Vaibhav wasn’t nervous.

He wasn’t there to beat them.
He was there to beat yesterday’s Vaibhav.

That’s why you’ll find his name trending in searches:

• fastest century in IPL
• youngest player in IPL history
• Vaibhav Suryavanshi IPL 2025

Mindset Shift 3: Pressure Was His Fuel, Not His Fear

At 14, pressure usually paralyzes.
But for Vaibhav?
Pressure powered him.

Instead of seeing pressure as something scary, he flipped the meaning:

Pressure means I’m doing something worth noticing.

Every ball faced in that 35-ball century carried weight.
Every six launched into the stands told the world:

I don’t fear pressure — I thrive on it.

When you search for among the greats.

When Vaibhav walked into the stadium at 14, the world saw a kid.
He saw a king.

And kings don’t ask for permission.
They take their place.

His 35-ball century isn’t just a record.
It’s a message to anyone stuck thinking “I’m too young,” “too inexperienced,” or “not ready yet.”?

You’re not waiting for life to give you permission.
You give yourself permission to start.
