RR was handed a mammoth total of 210 to chase, but Vaibhav seemed like nothing could faze him as he scored a 38-ball 101 and added 166 runs for the first wicket to help RR secure 8 wickets win in 210 runs chase. In the meantime, Vaibhav broke multiple records, including scoring the fastest century by an Indian and the second-fastest overall. Vaibhav took 35 balls to complete his century, which is two balls fewer than the second-fastest Indian, Yusuf Pathan, and only five balls more than Chris Gayle, who scored a 30-ball century against Pune Warriors India.
