Nitish Rana’s Age Quip About Teen IPL Star Vaibhav Suryavanshi Goes Viral

The viral joke has refocused attention on the 14-year-old IPL centurion, whose family has publicly shown a birth certificate.

Overview

  • In a rapid-fire interview at the Delhi Premier League, Rana joked in Hindi about whether Suryavanshi is truly 14 and immediately added, “I am joking.”
  • The clip spread widely online, reviving a familiar public question that Suryavanshi’s family previously addressed by sharing his birth certificate.
  • Reports this year described Suryavanshi as the youngest IPL debutant and centurion after a 101 off 38 balls for Rajasthan Royals, the league’s second-fastest hundred.
  • Cricket Country’s recap lists 252 runs in seven matches and notes the hundred came against Gujarat Titans, described as the fastest IPL century by an Indian.
