Fans Erupt as Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s Historic IPL Century Leads Rajasthan Royals to Commanding Victory over Gujarat Titans

In this wild match in Jaipur—April 28, 2025, mark that date—the Rajasthan Royals totally outplayed the Gujarat Titans. Eight wickets, 25 balls left. Sounds like a sports headline, I know. Anyway, the Royals chased down this crazy target of 210. And guess what? A 14-year-old, Vaibhav Suryavanshi (yes, 14!), smashed his way into the IPL history books with a century. Crazy, right? Youngest ever to do it. The thing is, his 101 off 38 balls was like a firework show that you couldn’t take your eyes off. Yashasvi Jaiswal pitched in, too. And just like that, Rajasthan walked all over Gujarat.

So, the Titans batted first—seems like ages ago now—and hit 209/4. Shubman Gill was on a roll with 84 off 50 balls. He was solid. Sai Sudharsan started strong, but after his 39 from 30 balls, he got out in the 10th over. 93/1 at that point. Jos Buttler played hero, staying unbeaten on 50 from 26—thank him for those fours and sixes in the end. Oh, and Washington Sundar added a neat little cameo, 13 off 8. But, between Jofra Archer’s speed and Sandeep Sharma’s cunning, the middle order was kind of meh.

Alright, back to the chase now! Boom, Vaibhav happened. Quickest Indian century? Yup. 35 balls. Maybe he had jet fuel in his bat. Seven fours, eleven sixes. At one point, I thought the bowlers might just pack up and leave. Jaiswal kept things steady with a chill 70 off 40 balls. And—poof—target achieved in 15.5 overs. Royals: 2 points, Titans: nada.

Fans went nuts, Twitter exploded. Sachin tweeted! “What an incredible talent,” he said. I mean, when I was 14, I was eating ice cream, not hitting sixes off Bouncers! Yuvraj and Srikkanth were all “fearless attitude” and “next superstar,” throwing fire emojis around. Even Tejashwi Yadav jumped in with the proud Bihari boy shoutout. Like, the whole cricketing world just couldn’t believe it.

The future of cricket? Bright. Blinding, maybe. But hey, that’s why we love the game. It’s unpredictable, raw, and sometimes, just plain magical.
