'Bit Of Similarity With Rishabh Pant': Michael Atherton In Awe Of Vaibhav Suryavanshi
Last Updated: Michael Atherton has lauded Vaibhav Suryavanshi's power-hitting, comparing him to Rishabh Pant. Former England cricketer Michael Atherton has said that Vaibhav Suryavanshi's power-hitting has a tad bit of similarity with that of India's Test vice-captain Rishabh Pant, who too was in a mood to go for the big hits in the second Test against England at Edgbaston. Suryavanshi smashed a jaw-dropping hundred off just 52 deliveries against England U19, setting a new benchmark in Youth ODIs. With this explosive innings, Suryavanshi has become the youngest Indian to score a Youth ODI hundred, breaking Sarfaraz Khan's 10-year-old record. Athers breaks down teenage sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi's remarkable 52-ball century for India Under-19s 🤯⭐ — Sky Sports Cricket (@SkyCricket) July 5, 2025 'The young man, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who shot to prominence as, teenage prodigy, shot to prominence with a 35-ball 100 in the IPL, hit a 52-ball 100 today. He's finally out for 143 of 78 balls, 13 fours, 10 sixes, some incredible shots in this innings," Atherton said while speaking on Sky Sports. 'There is a bit of a similarity with Rishabh Pant, the way that he plays, he's got a beautiful swing of the bat, a very pure and natural swing of the bat and was clearly in fantastic form today, giving it some real welly," Atherton added. Sarfaraz had scored a hundred at 15 years and 338 days against South Africa U19 12 years ago. Suryavanshi's knock also shattered the record for the fastest Youth ODI hundred ever. Pakistan's Kamran Ghulam held this record for his 53-ball century against England U19 in 2013. Vaibhav first showed his brilliant talent in the Indian Premier League while playing for the Rajasthan Royals. Suryavanshi, who had scores of 48, 45 and 86 in his previous three outings in the series, struck 10 boundaries and seven sixes during his innings. Sent in to bat, India lost skipper Ayush Mhatre in just the fourth over. Suryavanshi and Vihaan Malhotra added 219 runs for the second wicket before the former was dismissed by Ben Mayes. In 2024, Suryavanshi struck the joint-fastest century in men's Youth Tests against Australia U19 in Chennai, by reaching the three-figure mark in just 56 deliveries. First Published:
