This has led to internet trolls targeting him for lying about his age to prolong his career and gain the fame that comes with being tagged as a '14-year-old' after playing good innings in games.
Although many Indians lie about their age, Vaibhav Suryavanshi's rapid rise to fame has brought him further criticism.
Despite the controversies about his age, no one can deny that this boy is full of immense talent when it comes to becoming the next big name in the world of cricket.
