Rajasthan Royals Coach Explains What Makes Vaibhav Suryavanshi A Special Talent

When Rajasthan Royals signed teenager Vaibhav Suryavanshi for a fee of Rs 1.10 crore, not everyone was on board with the franchise's strategy to sign a 13-year-old. At the age of 14, Vaibhav made his Indian Premier League debut, and one game later, he smashed his first-ever hundred in the T20 league. In doing so, the young batting sensation broke several records, while also silencing those questioning his credentials for a league of the stature of the IPL. While fans only saw what Vaibhav is capable of in the match against Gujarat, Rajasthan's scouts had already assessed his capabilities and hence decided to splash cash on the youngster in the mega auction last year.

As the league phase of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 heads towards a tense climax, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will be desperate to breathe life into a faltering campaign when they take on Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Wednesday.

It has been a campaign riddled with selection dilemmas, misfiring stars, and a lack of impact in key moments. Adding to their woes is their unexpected struggle at Chepauk—once considered a fortress, but now a venue where the Men in Yellow have failed to assert dominance.
