Australia is once again bracing for the impact of Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s powerful batting. A significant opportunity has emerged exactly one year after his remarkable performance. With the same team, the same format, and the same date, expectations are high. Will Suryavanshi replicate his explosive century on October 1, 2025, as he did on October 1, 2024? Can he establish a new world record in just a year? Will he showcase the same fiery batting display as he did in Chennai against Australia a year ago, now anticipated to occur in Brisbane?
To understand the anticipation, let’s recall what Vaibhav Suryavanshi achieved against the Australian U19 team on October 1, 2024. That match was special for Vaibhav as he debuted in the U19 multi-day format. His debut performance was stunning. He dominated the Australian bowlers on the Chennai ground, scoring a quickfire century in only 58 balls. The innings included 14 fours and 4 sixes, adding up to a total of 18 boundaries.
Suryavanshi scored 104 runs off 62 balls during his innings against Australia’s U19 team on October 1, 2024. That performance earned him a world record. He became the youngest batsman to score a century in an International Youth Test match.
The question now is what Vaibhav Suryavanshi will do in the youth test match against Australia’s U19 team on October 1, 2025? What record will he break? The difference this time is that he will aim to repeat his brilliance against Australia on Australian soil.
The inaugural multi-day match between the U19 teams of India and Australia is underway in Brisbane from September 30 to October 3. Australia scored 243 runs in their first innings on day one. Consequently, the first day’s play concluded. On October 1, 2025, during India’s U19 team’s first innings, all attention will be focused on Vaibhav Suryavanshi.
