He accomplished the feat against Pune Warriors India in the group stage match of the 2013 IPL in just 30 balls. In his most destructive innings, Gayle whacked 17 sixes & 13 fours. He ended up making 175* runs off just 66 balls, which assisted Royal Challengers Bangalore to post 263 runs for PWI. It is the highest score by any side in IPL.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi

His explosive 101-run knock (with 11 sixes and 7 fours) made him the youngest T20 centurion and the fastest Indian to reach a hundred in IPL history.

Chasing 210, Suryavanshi’s opening stand of 166 with Yashasvi Jaiswal sealed an eight-wicket win in just 15.5 overs, rewriting IPL record books. Emerging from Bihar, Vaibhav’s rise highlights the future of Indian cricket.
