The 2025-26 Vijay Hazare Trophy kicked off with a statistical explosion that has left the global cricketing community in awe. In a single day of play, the record for the fastest List A century by an Indian was broken, and then the standings were reshuffled twice more, headlined by a blistering comeback knock from Ishan Kishan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While the national spotlight was on the return of veterans like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, it was the youngsters and domestic captains who stole the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He eventually scored a massive 190 off 84 balls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Playing in an Elite-group clash against a formidable Karnataka side in Ahmedabad, Ishan Kishan\u2019s innings was a masterclass in modern power-hitting. Walking in after a solid foundation laid by Virat Singh (88) and Kumar Kushagra (63), Kishan unleashed a barrage of 14 sixes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n His 33-ball ton effectively secured the second-fastest spot on the all-time Indian list, demoting Suryavanshi\u2019s earlier record to fourth in the span of just a few hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The carnage wasn’t limited to individual milestones.
