Indian Premier League: Youngsters making blockbuster debuts seem to be becoming a part of the script for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 as 17-year-old Ayush Mhatre got off to a sensational start in his first match in the world's biggest T20 franchise league.

Handed a debut by Chennai Super Kings on his home ground, the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai youngster Mhatre blasted a 15-ball 32, coming in as a replacement for Rahul Tripathi.

A day after 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi started his IPL career with a six off the first delivery he faced playing for Rajasthan Royals against Lucknow Super Giants, Mhatre smashed two sixes and a four in the first five balls he faced.
