\n<\/p>\n

An U-19 World Cup winner at 14, batting prodigy Vaibhav Suryavanshi now has his eyes set on winning the Indian Premier League title for Rajasthan Royals in the upcoming season.<\/p>\n

Suryavanshi took the IPL 2025 by storm by becoming the tournament\u2019s youngest centurion, and earlier this year, his 80-ball 175-run knock in the final against England propelled India to a record-extending sixth U-19 World Cup title in Harare.<\/p>\n

He is now focussed on the IPL.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe goal this IPL season is to win the trophy for the team, as it is a very important thing. I want to do well, and my performance will help the whole team. This is my goal — to contribute to RR\u2019s wins and win the trophy for the franchise,\u201d Suryavanshi told broadcaster Star Sports<\/i> on the sidelines of the BCCI Naman Awards here on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Known for his explosive batting, Suryavanshi met his World Cup-winning teammates at the awards function.<\/p>\n

\u201c(It) feels really nice. Won a trophy as well for India at the World Cup. Because of this award ceremony, feeling nice to meet my teammates and coaches again here,\u201d the teen sensation said.<\/p>\n

Suryavanshi became the youngest player to sign an IPL contract when Rajasthan Royals picked up the then 13-year-old in 2024 for Rs 1.1 crore.<\/p>\n

The youngster from Bihar recalled his early days with the RR scouts.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I made my domestic debut, RR had been keeping an eye on me during my domestic and Under-19 games. Their scouting team had been keeping an eye on me for a long time. I felt that I could go to RR because my trial with them had gone very well,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am happy to be with RR, as I have improved a lot too in my life while playing for them.\u201d Suryavanshi said he has learned a lot from the legendary Rahul Dravid and other seniors in the team.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor any youngster, the first IPL camp is always interesting and it was the same for me too.<\/p>\n

\u201cRahul (Dravid) sir was there at that time, so I got to learn a lot from him. There were a lot of senior players in the team, and I had a good learning experience from them during the first camp as well as the first IPL,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
