The 15-year-old reached the milestone during the first T20I against Zimbabwe in Harare, helping India to chase a target of 126. It was his maiden international fifty and an important moment in his young career.

Harare, July 23: India's teenage batting sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi created history by becoming the youngest player to score a half-century in T20 international cricket against Zimbabwe at Harare on Thursday. He scored 50 off just 19 balls with 4 fours and 4 sixes.

The 15-year-old reached the milestone during the first T20I against Zimbabwe in Harare, helping India to chase a target of 126. It was his maiden international fifty and an important moment in his young career.

Sooryavanshi had a difficult start in international cricket during India's T20I series against England. After an outstanding IPL season that earned him a place in the national team, he managed scores of 14, 13 and 15 in his first three matches.

Against Zimbabwe, however, the youngster looked far more confident. He played with a mix of patience and aggression, building his innings before attacking the bowlers when needed.
