In a display of sheer batting violence, teenage sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi (29-Ball 94 runs) etched his name into cricket history during the 2026 Tri-Nation A-Series final against Sri Lanka A. The 15-year-old opener left spectators and opponents stunned by obliterating the world record for the fastest-ever half-century in List A cricket history.
Facing a high-stakes final at the Rangiri Dambulla International Cricket Stadium, the young left-hander required an unbelievable 11 deliveries to cross the 50-run milestone. The explosive milestone featured a sequence of five consecutive sixes that tore the Sri Lankan bowling attack apart.
Chasing the Century Record
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi didn't slow down after shattering the world record. He continued his unrelenting assault on the boundary, putting India A into a completely dominant position.
The prodigy looked destined to secure the fastest century in List A history, keeping his strike rate above the 320 mark. However, his blockbuster innings came to an agonizing end just six runs short of the milestone. Sri Lanka A captain Sahan Arachchige finally found a breakthrough, removing the youngster for a breathtaking 94 off just 29 balls.
