Footage of a 14-year-old Indian cricketer is going viral after he smashed yet another record during a match.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi made headlines earlier this year when he hit the second-fastest century in the history of the Indian Premier League.

Playing for Rajasthan Royals, he smashed 101 off just 35 balls in a successful chase of 210 against Gujarat Titans.

Mohammed Siraj and Washington Sundar - who are both in the India Test team facing England at Edgbaston this week - were in the bowling lineup, along with fellow Indian seamer Prasidh Krishna and Afghanistan leg-spinner Rashid Khan.

His century, which included 11 sixes, was struck at a strike rate of 265 as he created history in Jaipur.

This summer, Suryavanshi has been playing for India's U19 side against England in a series of Youth ODI matches.

He struck a rapid-fire 86 off 31 balls in the most recent match, with six fours and nine sixes, demolishing a number of England bowlers who have played at first-class level.

Now, he has gone one better by scoring the fastest hundred on record in Youth ODI cricket dating back to 1976.

At Worcestershire's New Road, he brought up his century in just 52 deliveries, and eventually scored 143 off 73 balls before finally being dismissed.

In total, he hit 13 fours and 10 sixes, with India having scored 233 runs off 27.1 overs by the time of his dismissal.

Worcestershire have posted highlights of his innings - and they are absolutely ridiculous.

It is Suryavanshi's pure power that is truly incredible, coupled with his ability to take on any type of bowling and hit 360 degrees.

Facing a bouncer from England quick Jack Home, the 14-year-old rocks onto his back foot and plays a baseball-style smash over deep extra cover.

Another shot, against leg-spinner Tazeem Chaudry Ali, sees him get down on one leg and play a lofted sweep to dispatch the ball square over the ropes.

England white-ball star Jos Buttler, who was in the opposing Gujarat team when Suryavanshi hit his fastest IPL hundred, has described the youngster as the best player he has ever seen at that age.

Speaking on the 'For the Love of Cricket' podcast with fellow England legend Stuart Broad, Buttler explained: "He hit his first ball for six in the IPL. He gave himself a bit of room and smacked it over wide long off for six.

"It's that fearlessness ... it was a pre-meditated shot, he backed away, he looked for it.

"The scale of the sixes [against Gujarat], they weren't just going over the boundary, they were big sixes. Big sixes. It was outrageous.

"He played an innings a couple of games later against Chennai, against Ravi Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja [India Test spinners]. He was, bang, hitting it into the stands, and then knocking one to cover, like 'I'm in control now'.

"At that moment, I'm thinking, 'This guy's the best player I've ever seen'... I was so blown away."
