In the Indian Premier League 2026 game between Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati, young batter Vaibhav Sooryavanshi began the chase on a positive note for Rajasthan Royals. Vaibhav opened the innings and displayed a fearless approach against experienced RCB's top pacers Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Josh Hazlewood.
He started by playing a beautiful shot to hit a boundary of the first ball itself, which was a full inswinging yorker; Vaibhav brought his bat down and drove it straight past the bowler which ran all the way to the boundary going through the diving mid-off fielder.
And it wasn't just that one shot that he played, he continued his aggressive intent by hitting another boundary of the last ball of the very first over to end the over at 10. This perfectly signaled his aggressive approach in a big chase. In the next over of Bhuvi, Vaibhav smoked two huge sixes and a four.

Josh Hazlewood's much awaited return didn't go well despite scalping Jaiswal's wicket in his first over. The southpaw faced the Aussie star in the fourth over, and to no surprise, Sooryavanshi wrecked havoc by smashing the pacer for 18 runs off 4 balls. Out of four deliveries he faced in that over, Vaibhav hammered three consecutive fours of the first three balls, followed by a six to end the over.

RCB Post Big Total, RR Stay in the Chase
Earlier on in the match the RCB put up a decent score of 202/8, but it was a game that had control at either end at different points. The Rajasthan bowlers were always picking up wickets at regular intervals, and but Rajat Patidar century ensured that it stayed on the game for the RCB.
In the death overs Venkatesh Iyer scored some quick runs and push up the total further. Now for the Rajasthan chase, and they have begun well with the fearless attacking at the top with Vaibhav.
It is anyone's game now with both having good opportunities, as the wicket continues to be good for batting.
