India has always boasted incredible batters in cricket. Sachin Tendulkar is referred to as the greatest of all time, and Virat Kohli is the best batter of today, while Rohit Sharma is one of the finest openers in modern day cricket. But England's former skipper Jos Buttler surprised everyone when he revealed that the greatest player he has ever seen is not Sachin or Virat, but 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi. Vaibhav made headlines with his incredible performance for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2025, making 252 runs from 7 games at a strike rate of 206. He even received the Super Striker of the Season award. Buttler said: “I was watching on TV. And, you know, Chennai have Ravi Ashwin, Jadeja — proper seasoned pros. And he was like, bang, hit them out into the sand. And then sort of, you know, knocked one out to cover, like, I’m so in control, I’ll just take one now, trot down to the other end. And at that moment, I’m like — this guy’s the best player I’ve ever seen. Like, I’m so blown away." Also Read | Agni Chopra in MLC: Why the BCCI Can’t Stop Him? Youngest Centurion in T20 History Vaibhav created history when he became the youngest cricketer to hit a T20 century in a match against Gujarat Titans. He hammered a 100 off only 35 balls, making it the second quickest century in IPL history. Buttler, a member of the Gujarat Titans, spoke about the "For The Love Of Cricket" podcast with Stuart Broad and explained that he was amazed by the manner in which Vaibhav struck top bowlers such as Mohammed Siraj, Rashid Khan, and Prasidh Krishna. Buttler was particularly impressed by Vaibhav's bold shots and huge sixes. Vaibhav also scored a masterful knock of 57 runs off only 33 balls against Chennai Super Kings, showcasing he's a special player and possibly an emerging superstar. The English batter added: “The innings against us, you know, our bowling attack consists of Mohammed Siraj, a brilliant international bowler, Prasidh Krishna, an international bowler, Rashid Khan, the best T20 bowler, and he just… the scale of the sixes. They weren’t just clearing the boundary; they were big sixes. I mean, you’re literally a yard from him. Big sixes. And a 35-ball 100, it was outrageous."
