Rajasthan Royals’ teenage sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi exploded in the 1st innings of Eliminator 1 match of the 2026 Indian Premier League season against the Sunrisers Hyderabad at the PCA Stadium in New Chandigarh. The 15-year-old reached to his half-century in 16 balls but missed out on his full-century by just 3 runs.
Just a few days ago, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi smashed a 25-ball 100 in Kevin Pietersen’s YouTube show called “The Switch” and it will be fair to say that he has carried that form in this match as well. Opening alongside Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sooryavanshi did most of the damage, helping Rajasthan maintain a daunting run-rate of over 13.
