Ian Bishop compared Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s explosive 35-ball century for Rajasthan Royals to a young Sachin Tendulkar’s memorable knock against Derbyshire in 1990. Bishop recalled facing a 17-year-old Sachin who stunned him with a massive six over mid-wicket, leaving him in awe. Sachin’s unbeaten 105 led India to victory in that match. Bishop praised Vaibhav for his fearless hitting against top bowlers, including Ishant Sharma and Rashid Khan. Even Sachin lauded Vaibhav’s technique and power-hitting. At just 14, Vaibhav became the youngest Indian to score an IPL century and the fastest Indian to reach that milestone. Bishop acknowledged the talent and bravery displayed by Vaibhav, recognizing the impact he had on experienced bowlers. Vaibhav’s innings left a lasting impression on Bishop, reminiscent of Sachin’s early heroics, showcasing the potential and talent of the young cricketer.
