Mumbai teenager Ayush Mhatre created history on Tuesday (December 31), breaking a world record previously held by India international Yashasvi Jaiswal. Here's all you need to know about the 17-year-old opener.
In their fifth match of the 2024/25 Vijay Hazare Trophy, Mumbai took on Nagaland at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Having been put in to bat, they scored 403-7 thanks to fifties from Angkrish Raghuvanshi (56) and Shardul Thakur (73*), but the main contribution came from 17-year-old opener Ayush Mhatre.
Mhatre put on 156 for the first wicket with Raghuvanshi, slamming a scarcely believable 181 off 117 balls in what was just his fifth List A match, and 11th senior match. Earlier in the competition, he had scored 78 against Karnataka on his List A debut.
