Young batting sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi has impressed all and sundry with his aggressive batting in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025.
Playing for Rajasthan Royals, Suryavanshi scored a blistering ton to blow away Gujarat Titans in a match of IPL 2025. Apart from this, he also hit a couple of cameos to showcase his immense talent.
Based on his brilliant performance, several fans and experts are of the opinion that Suryavanshi is going to be the next big thing in Indian cricket. Some experts even went to the extent of comparing the young batting sensation with the great Sachin tendulkar.
However, former Australia captain Steve Waugh rubbished Suryavanshi's comparison with Tendulkar.
Steve made it clear that Tendulkar is incomparable by referring to his freakish performance in Perth.

"I don’t think you can compare anyone to Sachin Tendulkar. I mean, a 16-year-old (18-year-old) coming out to Australia and scoring a century in Perth on the hardest and the most unique pitch in world cricket where most players really struggle to play on a pitch," said Steve.
"For him to score a century as a teenager in Perth was a freakish performance. It’s very rare you get a Sachin Tendulkar come along. But I would never have expected a 14-year-old to score a 100 in the IPL, that was unthinkable," he added.
The former Australia great feels that it will be a challenge for Vaibhav to continue playing the same way in the coming years with the same freedom, while praising his skills and mental toughness.
