Vaibhav Sooryavanshi creates world record by smashing fastest List-A fifty in tri-series final for India A

1 hour ago 12

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, take a bow! Is there anything this lad can’t do? If scoring the fastest Indian Premier League (IPL) hundred (as an Indian) wasn’t enough, he has hit the quickest fifty in all of List-A history. Following his altercation with Sri Lanka A players a few days ago, the 15-year-old has batted like a wounded lion to create a world record. He clubbed his second List-A fifty in a mere 11 balls, going past the previous record set by Sri Lanka’s own Kaushalya Weeraratne back in 2005.
