His two centuries also sit among the fastest in IPL history, coming off 35 and 36 balls respectively, behind only to Chris Gayle’s 30-ball record.
While Rajasthan fell short despite his latest effort, Sooryavanshi’s output remains one of the standout features of the season. At just 15, his ability to clear the boundary consistently and score at pace has made him one of the most influential batters in IPL 2026.
