He becomes the first Indian to hit 50 sixes in a single IPL season, reaching 53. Ashwin compares the 15-year-old to an alien, referencing the mystery of Area 51. R Ashwin calls Vaibhav Sooryavanshi 'supernatural' after blazing 93 against LSG Ravichandran Ashwin lavished praise on Vaibhav Sooryavanshi following his sensational 93-run knock against Lucknow Super Giants on Tuesday at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.
The 15-year-old Rajasthan Royals opener tore into the Lucknow bowling attack in a manner that left most speechless, including Ashwin, who eventually reached for a metaphor that was, frankly, the only one that seemed to fit. Area 51 is a classified United States Air Force facility in the Nevada desert that has, for decades, been the centre of conspiracy theories about alien life and extraterrestrial activity. The site became a cultural reference point for anything mysterious, inexplicable or beyond human understanding.
When Ashwin wrote on social media that the debate around alien existence at Area 51 could finally be put to rest, thanks to Sooryavanshi's innings, he was not wrong. It was the only framework that made any sense after watching a 15-year-old hit ten sixes against a full international bowling attack while chasing 221. Ashwin wrote: "Area 51 has a lot of mystery associated to extra terrestrial existence.
Let’s put an end to that debate, there is one super natural person living amongst us earthlings & he opens the batting for Rajasthan Royals and is on duty now at Jaipur. It’s also on Live TV. #vaibhavsooryavanshi .
