Rajasthan Royals opener Vaibhav Sooryavanshi became the youngest player to aggregate 1000 runs in T20s after his blazing start for RR against Sunrisers Hyderabad in Jaipur on Saturday.
The 15-year-old raced to a 15-ball fifty for the third time in his fledgling IPL career to rewrite the record. The child prodigy has already aggregated over 250 runs in seven matches this season at a strike rate over 205.
Sooryavanshi had become the youngest centurion in the format after reaching three figures against the Gujarat Titans in IPL 2025. The hundred was the second fastest in IPL history.
He finished the season with 292 runs in eight matches, at an average of 41.71 and strike rate of 229.92.
