Vaibhav Suryavanshi is making a splash in IPL 2026, he scored a century in 36 balls against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Saturday. 15 year old Vaibhav has made his mark as an explosive batsman in a very short time. Whereas when he was selected in Rajasthan Royals for the last season, there was discussion only about his age. At that time he was 13 years old, but most of the fans were not ready to accept that he was 13 years old.
According to BCCI records, Vaibhav Suryavanshi was born on March 27, 2011 in Samastipur, Bihar. When he was bought by Rajasthan Royals, he was 13 years old. He made his IPL debut at the age of 14, creating history in the very first season by scoring a century in 35 balls. Now after the second season, he can make his international debut for Team India. Although there is still discussion about his age, one reason for this is his old interview.
Actually, a clip of the interview given by Vaibhav Suryavanshi in 2023 had gone viral, in which Vaibhav says that he will turn 14 in September, 2023. If this is true then his age would be one and a half to 2 years older than the age mentioned in the records.
