'Fake' Vaibhav Suryavanshi Responds To Sachin Tendulkar's Praise, Unaware Fans Stumped

The entire Jaipur crowd was left stunned after Rajasthan Royals' 14-year-old prodigy, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, shattered multiple records and propelled his team to victory in a must-win IPL 2025 match against Gujarat Titans on Monday. Chasing the target of 210, RR always dominated the game as the teen batter stood tall against GT's deadly bowling lineup and became the fastest Indian centurion in IPL history, reaching there in just 35 balls. As a result, the hosts went across the line in just 15.5 overs and remained alive in the playoffs race.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi also broke a massive world record. He is now the youngest ever (14 years, 32 days) to score a ton in the T20 format. However, this early fame also had a negative impact as a fake profile of Suryavanshi went viral on X (formerly Twitter).

The account ran with the username of @VaibhavOfficia and had Suryavanshi's photo in RR's jersey as the profile picture. As the young opener created history on the field, the account went viral and quickly gained a massive number of followers and likes. However, the number of followers rapidly increased after the user replied to a wish from India's legendary batter Sachin Tendulkar.

Praising Suryavanshi for knock, Sachin took to X and wrote, "Vaibhav's fearless approach, bat speed, picking the length early, and transferring the energy behind the ball was the recipe behind a fabulous innings. End result: 101 runs off 38 balls. Well played!!"

Thank you so much Sir. It's been a dream to earn a compliment from someone I've admired. Grateful beyond words https://t.co/cAaVK3YAHD
