Many questions were raised regarding the age of Vaibhav Suryavanshi, when Rajasthan Royals bought him, he was 13 years old. He made his IPL debut at the age of 14. Now his explosive style and records are discussed more than his age. In the very first edition, he created history by scoring a century in 35 balls, which is the fastest century by any Indian in the history of the league. His same style is being seen in IPL 2026 also, although he could score only 8 runs last night against Lucknow Super Giants.
After the match, Vaibhav Suryavanshi Jiho came to talk to the Hotstar presenter. The presenter asked him, “At the age when I used to watch cartoons, you are making cartoons of bowlers’ balls. What is going on in your mind?” On this Vaibhav told about his habit that he watches cartoons every day.
What did Vaibhav Suryavanshi say?
Nothing goes through my mind sir. Even today, I watch cartoons every day before the match. Still have the habit of watching cartoons. We are still watching cartoons but the focus is also on games. Now we will focus on the next match, take 2 points and move towards the playoffs.”
