His knock included aggressive strokeplay and came at a crucial stage for East Zone.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"6\"\/>At 15 years and 175 days, Sooryavanshi surpassed a record that had stood for 57 years. The previous youngest batter to score a Duleep Trophy fifty was Laxman Singh, who was 16 years and 23 days old when he achieved the feat in 1969.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>He has now moved ahead of Laxman Singh and Piyush Chawla, who was 16 years and 307 days old when he scored a Duleep Trophy fifty in 2025.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Youngest to hit Duleep Trophy fifty<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"cdatainfo   id-r-component \" data-pos=\"14\">\n<ul>\n<li>Vaibhav Sooryavanshi: 15 years 175 days<\/li>\n<li>Laxman Singh (1969): 16 years 23 days<\/li>\n<li>Piyush Chawla (2025): 16 years 307 days<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>Sooryavanshi\u2019s batting milestone came after he had already found himself in an unusual leadership role earlier in the match.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/>On Day 1, East Zone captain Ishan Kishan was forced off the field during the morning session after being struck on his right wrist. Sooryavanshi stepped in as stand-in captain for around an hour on either side of lunch before Kishan returned to take charge.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"19\"\/>During his brief spell as captain, Sooryavanshi also made an important intervention with the DRS.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"21\"\/>In the 40th over, Central Zone opener and wicketkeeper Aryan Juyal was on 46 when he poked at a delivery from <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/mukesh-kumar\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mukesh Kumar<\/a> outside off. East Zone appealed for a caught-behind dismissal, but the on-field umpire turned it down.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"25\"\/>Sooryavanshi backed his judgement and opted for a review. UltraEdge showed a small spike as the ball passed the bat, confirming the edge and giving East Zone a crucial wicket.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"28\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h3>Central Zone bowled out for 266<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, East Zone made an excellent start after Kishan won the toss and chose to field.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"31\"\/>Mukesh Kumar and Abhijit Sarkar picked up three wickets apiece, while Mohammed Shami and off-spinner Md Kounain Quraishi claimed two each as Central Zone were bowled out for 266 in 80.1 overs.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"34\"\/>Rinku Singh top-scored with 60 off 88 balls, while Juyal contributed 46. Rinku also put together a 55-run sixth-wicket partnership with Harsh Dubey, who scored 27, after Central Zone slipped to 125\/5.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"37\"\/>Quraishi broke that stand by trapping Dubey lbw in the 60th over, triggering another collapse.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"39\"\/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/saransh-jain\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Saransh Jain<\/a> made 13 and Aryan Pandey scored 22, while Yash Thakur provided late impetus with a quick 30 off 26 balls.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"42\"\/>Central Zone were eventually bowled out for 266, giving East Zone the platform to take control of the semi-final.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"44\"\/>For Sooryavanshi, the semi-final has already been a memorable one. On the opening day, he briefly took over as East Zone captain after Ishan Kishan left the field, and a day later he produced another record-breaking performance. Sooryavanshi brought up his half-century in just 42 balls before going on to score 92 off 81 deliveries.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"46\"\/>The only disappointment was that the teenage star could not complete another century, falling just eight runs short of three figures.<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a
