India vs Pakistan U-19 Asia Cup 2024: Team India will start its Under-19 Asia Cup campaign on Saturday against Pakistan at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai. The Indian team led by Mohammad Aman is searching for its ninth Under-19 Asia Cup title this time. In this match, 13-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi will also be seen playing for India, on whom Rajasthan Royals had recently made a huge bid of Rs 1.1 crore in the mega auction.
Vaibhav has scored a century against Australia
Vaibhav, with a base price of Rs 30 lakh, has become the youngest player to be selected in the IPL auction. If we look at the records made by him at a young age, even the best batsmen would feel ashamed. He has also scored a century in the Under-19 Test against Australia. Just two months ago, he had scored 104 runs on 62 balls against Australia Under-19 team in Chennai. After this inning, he became the youngest player to score an international century in youth cricket. At that time his age was 13 years and 187 days.

Record made in Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy
Before him, this record was in the name of current Bangladesh captain Nazmul Hussain Shanto, who had achieved this feat at the age of 14 years and 241 days. Earlier on 23 November 2024, as soon as Vaibhav played for Bihar against Rajasthan, he became the youngest player to play in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. Apart from this, he has also played Ranji matches at this age, which is a record in itself.
Vaibhav is ahead of Sachin-Yuvraj in this matter
Vaibhav has left behind legendary batsmen Sachin Tendulkar and Yuvraj Singh in terms of playing Ranji at the youngest age. While Sachin played his first Ranji match at the age of 15 years and 230 days, when Yuvraj played the first Ranji match of his career, he was 15 years and 57 days old. Among the youngest players to play Ranji, ahead of Vaibhav are Alimuddin of Rajputana, SK Boss of Bihar and Mohammad Ramzan of North India team.
