The aggressive left-handed batter has already made a good name for himself with some brilliant performances in the IPL as well as for U19 and India A sides. After playing a stunning knock in the U19 final against England where he scored 175 and helped the Ayush Mhatre-led side lift the cup, Sooryavanshi will be seen in action for Rajasthan Royals in the IPL.

In 7 matches that he played in his first stint with the Royals, Vaibhav hit 252 runs at a strike rate of 206.55 including a hundred and a fifty. The team management would want him to continue his form and provide the side with brisk starts.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi received the award from the President of India, Droupadi Murmu, at Rashtrapati Bhavan in December last year. He enjoyed a breakout season in the Indian Premier League with the Rajasthan Royals, making his debut at 14 years and 23 days against Lucknow Super Giants, becoming the youngest player in tournament’s history.
Nine days later, he scored a 35-ball century, the fastest IPL hundred by an Indian and second-fastest overall behind Chris Gayle.
Addressing the gathering, President Droupadi Murmu praised the young achievers and said, “Your achievements inspire the entire nation. Every child honoured today is equally important and valued. It is because of such talented children that India continues to shine on the global stage. Your exceptional talents have been showcased across bravery, art and culture, environment, innovation, science and technology, social service, and sports. Each one of you has done remarkable work. While I may mention only a few due to time constraints, every child honoured today is equally important and respected.”
Rajasthan Royals will start the IPL 2026 campaign against Chennai Super Kings on Monday in Guwahati.
Covering sports for fun. Cricket in whites remains the first love—the kind that teaches patience, rewards nuance, and tells stories over five days rather than five seconds.
