Tanmay Chaudhary’s reported 278-run T20 innings: 27 sixes in school cricket

Young Uttar Pradesh batter Tanmay Chaudhary has attracted attention in the Delhi school-cricket circuit. According to the account supplied by the reporter, he scored 278 in a quarterfinal T20 innings, hitting 22 fours and 27 sixes. No independent official match scorecard was available, so these figures are attributed to the reporter rather than presented as a verified record.

A reported quarterfinal hitting spree

The reporter called the competition the “Schools Total T20 Tournament”. The supplied photograph bears “PNP Schools T20 League” branding; it does not show a match score or substantiate the innings. An official organizer record tying the pictured branding to this particular match could not be established.

The same reporter account also claims five double-centuries, six sixes in an over on four occasions, and 400 runs in a 50-over match. It says he received a ₹5 lakh prize. Official scorecards and a prize record for those additional claims were not available.

The road ahead

Such attacking displays draw attention to young school cricketers. The reporter also describes Tanmay’s ambition to play for India; any selection depends on future performances and the selection process. This report can be updated if an official scorecard becomes available.
