Vaibhav continued his century-making streak even after the IPL. He has already scored six centuries in 2025. Before scoring a century against the UAE in the current tournament, he scored a century in a Youth ODI in England, a Youth Test in Australia, a century playing for India A, and a century in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. Overall, Vaibhav has scored centuries in all three formats this year. This performance is driving expectations from him to rise match by match.
