Vaibhav smashed a century in just 35 balls and in the IPL history he is now just behind Chris Gayle as the second fastest player to achieve the historic feat. Interestingly, no other player under the age of 18 has ever achieved a T20 century before. He is also the 7th Indian teenager to have scored a T20 ton after Rohit Sharma, Devdutt Padikkal and Manish Pandey.
