Fourteen-year-old Indian batting prodigy Vaibhav Suryavanshi was honored with the Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Puraskar by President Droupadi Murmu for his exceptional batting performances. Suryavanshi, a left-handed batter for the U-19 India cricket team and Rajasthan Royals, has broken numerous records. He holds the record for the youngest IPL contract and achieved the fastest IPL century by an Indian. Comparisons have been drawn to Sachin Tendulkar due to his early success.
