Why Is Vaibhav Getting So Much Attention?

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has already become one of the biggest names among young cricketers after his stunning performances in the IPL 2026.

The youngster enjoyed a dream season with the Rajasthan Royals, where he finished as the Orange Cap winner by scoring 776 runs in 16 matches at a stunning strike rate of 237.30 and an average of 48.50.

Because of his fearless batting and ability to score quickly, Vaibhav has already become one of the most talked-about young stars in Indian cricket.

With Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma nearing the later stages of their careers, many believe Indian cricket is looking for its next big superstar.

India Call-Up And Current Form

Vaibhav’s performances also earned him a place in India’s squads for the upcoming Ireland and England T20I tours, along with the 2026 Asian Games in Japan.

As he is all set to make his India debut soon, the youngster could even go on to break Sachin Tendulkar’s record and create history at a very young age.

However, ahead of the UK tour, Vaibhav is yet to find his best form in Sri Lanka. In the ongoing tri-series, the youngster has scored 14, 44 and 21 in his three innings so far. While the reports around his rise continue to grab attention, it will now be interesting to see how the teenage sensation responds and takes his journey forward from here.
