The Indian Premier League (IPL) has been a breeding ground for young talent, with several prodigies making their mark at an early age. Over the years, a handful of teenagers have stunned the cricketing world by scoring half-centuries in the tournament, proving their ability to perform under pressure.
In IPL 2025, Vaibhav Suryavanshi created history by becoming the youngest player ever to score a fifty in the league. The 14-year-old Rajasthan Royals batter smashed a 17-ball half-century against Gujarat Titans, breaking the previous record held by Riyan Parag. Parag had achieved the feat at the age of 17 years and 175 days, also while playing for Rajasthan Royals. Before Parag, Sanju Samson had held the record, scoring a fifty at 18 years and 159 days.
