India ‘A’ claimed a dramatic victory in the final of the 2026 Sri Lanka ‘A’ Team Tri-Series at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium, headlined by an absolute demolition of the history books by teenage batting prodigy Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. The explosive opening batsman smashed the fastest half-century in the entire history of List-A cricket, reaching his fifty in a mind-boggling 11 deliveries. The relentless, boundary-laden onslaught eclipsed all previous domestic and international records for one-day formats, completely leaving the Sri Lanka ‘A’ bowling attack shell-shocked from the opening over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sooryavanshi didn’t slow down after hitting the historic milestone, launching a continuous barrage of boundary strokes to finish his devastating innings with a rapid 94 runs off just 29 deliveries. His opening fireworks alongside a steady, anchor performance from captain Ruturaj Gaikwad provided the team with an unstoppable momentum that shifted the final entirely in India A’s favor. Despite a dramatic late-innings collapse where the middle-order stuttered against the host’s spinners, India ‘A’ managed to crawl across the finishing line to secure the tournament trophy, bouncing back in style after dropping a highly controversial, tense Super Over thriller to the exact same opponents earlier in the group stage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
