Vijay Zol -Indian Cricket Player


Vijay Zol (DOB Nov 23,1994)came into prominence when he smashed a mammoth 451* off 467 deliveries (4x53 and 6x2)batting for almost eleven hours for Maharashtra against Assam in an Under-19 Cooch Behar Trophy group game in December 2011

That marathon knock transformed his career as he was later picked for India's ICC U-19 World Cup side that won the competition in Townsville, Australia in 2012

Vijay Zol  kept on scoring runs after that, with 225 runs coming in six games for Maharashtra in the 2013 Vijay Hazare Trophy, which was followed by a century (109 off 63 balls) in a Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 game against Mumbai in March 2013


Vijay Zol captained India U-19 side for a tri-series in Australia in July this 2013 and vindicated the selectors' faith by leading the team admirably. In five matches, Zol scored 293 runs at 73.25, helping India winning the competition without losing a single match.  

Vijay Zol lead the Indian side in a youth series held in Sri Lanka and runs continued to flow in Sri Lanka as well, getting two centuries in as many innings at 150.50 in Tests and two half-centuries at 55.33 in three limited-overs games.  

Vijay Zol achieved the remarkable feat of scoring a century(110 Runs) in debut first-class innings on Friday Aug 30,2013 against New Zealand A featuring Test bowlers Mark Gillespie and Doug Bracewell in
Visakhapatnam.
