"Draft him ASAP to T20I setup" - Fans laud Vaibhav Suryavanshi after his blistering 95-ball 171 in IND vs UAE U-19 Asia Cup 2025 match

Vaibhav Suryavanshi continued his sensational run with the bat. He smashed a blistering and massive hundred in India's U-19 Asia Cup 2025 match against the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on Friday, December 12.

The 14-year-old slammed a 95-ball 171 as India posted a mammoth total of 433/6 from their 50 overs. His whirlwind knock included nine boundaries and 14 sixes at a strike-rate of 180. While he fell short of a well-deserved double hundred, fans lauded Suryavanshi for his stunning century.

A fan called for the star left-hander to be included in the senior T20I team soon.

"Vaibhav suryavanshi is 🔥 and generational Draft him asap to t20i set up If necessary kick pill and hangurya," the tweet read on X.

"If Sachin Tendulkar could play in the senior team at the age of 16, then Vaibhav Suryavanshi should also be given a chance. He has been in excellent form for the last 8 months. Even the senior team players are not performing as well as he is," another fan wrote.

14 and already bullying U19 bowlers for 171? This kid's got that fearless Kohli vibe early! Bihar's gift to Indian cricket 🇮🇳🔥 Who's betting on his IPL ton next year?

The Fielder

@palanimi347

At this young age, he's maintaining his consistency so well. No words to describe his monstrous performance – he's an upcoming threat to world bowlers if he stays this good. Congratulations, Suryavanshi! 🔥

14 years old and batting like he’s already ready for international cricket, 171 off 95 is insane at any level. If this is the future, India’s talent pipeline is unreal. Remember the name: Vaibhav Suryavanshi.

@RonakVaniya111

Bro dropped a power statement at 14 like it’s just another Tuesday. 🔥171 off 95 in U19s? That’s not talent, that’s a full-blown disruption strategy in human form. Kid’s basically telling the ecosystem, “Scale with me or get left behind.”​India’s pipeline stays undefeated.

He took the attack to the opposition from the word go. The left-hander reached his fifty off just 30 balls and got to his century off just 56 balls. Moreover, he crossed the 150-mark off just 84 balls.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi has been in exceptional form this year

2025 has been a remarkable year for Vaibhav Suryavanshi, having established a reputation for himself as a consistent and hard-hitting opener. He grabbed attention with his impressive showing in IPL 2025 for the Rajasthan Royals (RR), where he scored 252 runs from seven games at an average of 36 and a strike-rate of 206.55. In the seven games, he struck a century and a half-century as well.

Among his remarkable knocks were centuries against the UAE in List-A cricket and Maharashtra in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (SMAT) 2025-26. For India A, he smashed 144 off just 42 balls against the UAE in the Asia Cup Rising Stars.

He struck an unbeaten 108 off 61 balls for Bihar against Maharashtra and became the youngest Indian to score a hundred in the SMAT.
