Becoming the youngest player to play in the IPL at 14 years old, Suryavanshi had a fantastic outing for the Royals. Replacing Sanju Samson at the top of the order during his absence, he scored a scintillating knock of 101 runs in 38 deliveries. In doing so, he became the fastest Indian to score a ton in IPL in 35 balls and the second fastest in the league's history.

Post the league's resumption, Suryavanshi held onto the starting opener's spot for the Rajasthan Royals. He scored 252 runs in the seven games he played, with a hundred and a fifty to his name. In terms of boundaries, the 14-year-old struck a total of 18 fours and 24 maximums for RR.

Suryavanshi is currently with the India Under-19 squad for their tour of England. He will play alongside Chennai Super Kings' Ayush Mhatre, who will be leading the team against England U-19 in five one-day games and two four-day games.
