Sooryavanshi has been in ominous form in the ongoing season of the IPL. A few days back, he hit the third fastest IPL century off merely 36 balls against Sunrisers Hyderabad in Jaipur. With that knock, he also became the youngest player, and the fastest by balls faced, to ​complete 1,000 runs in Twenty20 cricket. Sooryavanshi took 473 balls to reach the milestone. The previous record ‌was held by Australia's Mitchell Owen, who ‌completed ⁠1,000 runs in 533 balls.

After hammering the third fastest century, Sooryavanshi gave fans a glimpse of how he thinks while batting. 

“There wasn’t much thinking... ‌I just played according to the ball. The wicket felt good, so I backed my game. I think about which ​bowlers are in the opposition, what shots I can play against them... I ⁠try to visualise all of that." The teenager, who has yet to make his senior debut ‌for India, has been in scorching form this season, having earlier scored two 15-ball fifties against Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru," he said after his century against SRH. 

In the 2026 season, he has already amassed 357 runs in eight outings. What makes him special is his strike rate. His strike rate is a staggering 234.87. Thanks to his good show, Rajasthan find themselves in the fourth spot in the points table.
