IPL 2025: 14 -year -old Vaibhav Suryavanshi was also born 3 years after the IPL started. This young player did the feat in IPL 2025, which veterans like Virat Kohli, MS Dhoni, Rohit Sharma could not do it for years. He has now become the second and first Indian player to score the fastest century (35 balls) in the tournament.

Vaibhav who is the idol cricketer of Suryavanshi? If you guess it, then Virat, Dhoni, will take the name of Kohli because when Suryavanshi was learning the tricks of cricket, these veterans were dominated all over the country and had made their names. You can also think about Sachin Tendulkar, but it is not so. His Idol cricketer is not an Indian but a West Indies veteran Brian Lara.

Brian Lara is Suryavanshi’s idol cricketer

Vaibhav Suryavanshi had told in a conversation with Sony Sports Network during the 2024 Under-19 Asia Cup that his idol cricketer is Brian Lara, who is a left-handed batsman like him. He also said that I am not upset with what is happening around him.

He had said, “I am currently focusing on my game. What is happening around me, I am not upset with this. I want to focus on the Asia Cup first and then focus on each match.”

“Brian Lara is my idol cricketer. I try to play like him, the rest I try to play naturally with my skills and I want to work on it.”

By the way, Brian Lara played his last international match in 2008, Vaibhav Suryavanshi was born after about 3 years. So Suryavanshi did not see Lara playing but must have taken inspiration from him by watching his old videos.
