Vaibhav Suryavanshi's entry into the field is like a storm of fours and sixes, a storm of record books turning upside down. Something like this was also seen in the Under-19 Asia Cup in Dubai today.
This Indian opener hit more sixes than fours against the United Arab Emirates and scored 120 runs only from boundaries. In a 95-ball innings, the left-handed batsman scored a total of 171 runs with 14 sixes and 9 fours! Suryavanshi's stormy batting helped the India Under-19 team to a total of 433 runs for 6 wickets in 50 overs.
Suryavanshi, who played hard from the start, reached his fifty in 30 balls. 40 runs of this fifty were from fours and sixes. On the way to reaching his century, he scored the next 50 runs in 26 balls. In total, he scored his century in 56 balls with 5 fours and 9 sixes.
Suryavanshi, who holds the record for the youngest century among Indians in the IPL, has also registered multiple feats with 171 runs. This is his highest innings in Under-19 cricket. His previous highest innings in this level of cricket was 143, against England in July this year. Suryavanshi played the ninth-highest individual innings in all-India Under-19 ODIs. South Africa's Jorich van Schalkeak tops the list. Schalkeak played an innings of 215 runs against Zimbabwe in July this year.
Suryavanshi also created a record by hitting 14 sixes in this innings. This is the record for the most sixes in a youth ODI innings. He surpassed Australia's Michael Hill's 12 sixes in a youth ODI against Namibia in 2008. His 171 is the second-highest innings for India in Under-19 ODIs. Ambati Rayudu scored 177 runs against England in 2002.

India's 433 on the day of Suryavanshi's highest innings is the third highest by a team in Under-19 ODIs. New Zealand scored 436 runs for 4 wickets in January 2018. Australia scored 480 runs for 6 wickets in 2002. The opponents in both matches were Kenya.
Today, after India's 433 runs, Emirates came out to chase the run and batted 199 for 7 wickets in 50 overs. Suryavanshi's team started the tournament with a big win of 234 runs.
