A 15-year-old shocked everyone in IPL 2026 with fearless, explosive batting that amazed fans and experts.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi scored 78 off 26 balls, delivering one of the season’s boldest innings. He attacked from the start, hitting boundaries everywhere and putting RCB under pressure.
Chopra said, “He’s not just a kid, he’s a storm. His batting is incredible and all the talk is about him. RR’s success so far is thanks to this young star.”
Chopra pointed out that Vaibhav has hit sixes each off Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Matt Henry, Shardul Thakur, Noor Ahmad, and Jasprit Bumrah, and one six each off Josh Hazlewood, Abhinandan Singh, Anshul Kamboj, Ashok Sharma, Trent Boult, Tim David, and Krunal Pandya, showing there’s almost no top bowler he hasn’t hit for six.
Chopra said Vaibhav hit 15 boundaries in 26 balls, reached fifty in just 15 balls, and nearly broke the fastest century record. He believes Vaibhav will soon claim that record too.
RCB were crushed as Rajasthan Royals easily chased a big target, led by an explosive innings. RCB couldn’t stop them as the match slipped away.
IPL may have found its next superstar. This isn’t just talent, it’s fearless domination. If he keeps playing like this, IPL 2026 could be all about this teenage sensation.
