How Vaibhav Sooryavanshi Became IPL Biggest Superstar: Now the question is not just that how many runs will Vaibhav Suryavanshi score… Now the question is which bowler in the world will be able to stop him? A 15 year old boy… in front of whom the biggest bowlers of IPL are making plans… and on the other side is the man called God of Cricket. Sachin Tendulkar He himself is tweeting after seeing his batting.

Young opener of Rajasthan Royals Vaibhav Suryavanshi Has created such a storm in IPL 2026 that the cricket world has been surprised. After playing an explosive inning of 97 runs in just 29 balls in the eliminator against Sunrisers Hyderabad, he is being talked about everywhere.

But this time the biggest thing was not just his innings… but the praise that Sachin Tendulkar gave for him… Sachin wrote that Vaibhav’s bat swing is very special. Especially the way he creates space for himself by removing his front foot and hits the ball with power, makes him different from other batsmen.

Understanding bat swing in cricket is not within everyone’s reach… and when Sachin Tendulkar himself praises the bat swing of a batsman… then understand how big the matter is.

‘Mission Batsman’ started at the age of 11

This game of glory is not just a result of talent. Hours of hard work are hidden behind this. According to his coach Manish Ojha, in 2022, when Vaibhav was only 11 years old, he used to practice continuously from 8 am in the morning to 4-5 pm. Used to face fast bowlers’ balls with speed of 125-130 kilometers per hour.

Not just defence, all types of shots were practiced in the nets. Cut, pull, upper cut, six over long-on, front foot attack… Vaibhav was learning the art of hitting every ball. This is the reason why today no length is safe for him in IPL.

Put the ball anywhere… six is ​​guaranteed!

Vaibhav’s figures in IPL 2026 are like a nightmare for bowlers.

• Strike rate on length ball 240+


• Strike rate on full ball 278


• Consecutive sixes even on short ball


• 680 runs in 15 matches


• 65 sixes

That is, if you bowl the ball full, you will hit it. Even if you bowl it short, you will hit it. Even if you bowl a good length, you will be sent to the stands. The most dangerous thing is that Vaibhav is not afraid of the speed of the ball, rather the faster the ball comes, the faster it goes out of the boundary.

Technique like ‘Bradman’?

Cricket experts believe that Vaibhav has a glimpse of Don Bradman in his batting. His body balance, keeping his weight on his back foot and watching the ball till the last moment… this is his strength. This is the reason why those LBW are very rare. Till now, in about 80 matches including IPL, First Class, List-A and youth cricket, Vaibhav has been out LBW only twice. This figure shows how different their balance and technique is.

Why was that innings special against SRH?

In the eliminator match, SRH bowlers tried to stop him by bowling yorkers in the beginning. Pat Cummins also changed the field, but Vaibhav did not stop. He hit 12 sixes and scored 97 runs in just 29 balls. He was about to score the fastest century in IPL history, Chris Gayle’s record was about to be broken, but he was out on 97.

The interesting thing is that even after getting out, Vaibhav did not look happy. The entire stadium was standing and clapping… but only one thing was written on his face, “History has been missed.” And this is what makes him different from other players.

Not just strength…mind is also dangerous

Vaibhav does not bat just with open hands. They do visualization before the match… which bowler will do what… how big is the boundary… where will the gap be found… they all think first. Then on the field they do what they have imagined. This is the reason why even at such a young age, there is no nervousness in him.

Cricket has got a new superstar?

Sachin Tendulkar, AB de Villiers, Chris Gayle… in every era, cricket has got such a batsman whom people used to turn on the TV to watch. Now Vaibhav Suryavanshi is giving the same feeling in IPL 2026. He is only 15 years old. But there is no childishness visible in his batting. Only devastation is visible.
