Switching focus back to cricket, Dhawan also praised Rajasthan Royals’ 14-year-old sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi, whose blistering 35-ball century against Gujarat Titans has become the talk of IPL 2025.

“It’s not just the hundred, but the confidence he showed at such a young age that impressed me the most,” Dhawan said during the Intercontinental Legends Championship (ILC) launch event.

Suryavanshi’s knock of 101 off 38 balls, including 11 sixes and 7 fours, broke a 15-year-old RR record held by Yusuf Pathan. His century is also the second-fastest in IPL history and has set a benchmark for young cricketers nationwide.

“The way he dominated international-quality bowlers is a remarkable feat… It’ll serve as motivation for every aspiring young cricketer in India,” Dhawan added.

The veteran batter also praised other emerging talents like Ayush Mhatre, noting the encouraging trend of teenagers making their mark in top-tier cricket.
