The young batsman hit 8 fours and 7 long sixes. The special thing was that the pressure of such a big match was not visible at all in his game. Vaibhav maintained constant pressure on Gujarat bowlers from powerplay to death overs.
Became the batsman who scored the most runs in the powerplay.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi has emerged as the biggest powerplay batsman in IPL 2026. This season he has scored more than 500 runs only during the powerplay. No batsman in IPL history had scored so many runs during the powerplay in a season. This record has now been registered in the name of Vaibhav.
Created history as an uncapped player
Vaibhav Suryavanshi has become the first uncapped batsman in IPL history to score more than 700 runs in a season. Earlier, this record was in the name of Rajasthan Royals batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal, who had scored 625 runs in IPL 2023. Achieving this achievement at the age of 15 is being considered a big sign for the future of Indian cricket.
Record of scoring fastest 1000 IPL runs
Vaibhav Suryavanshi not only scored runs but also changed the pace of records. He has made the record of completing 1000 runs in the fewest number of balls in IPL history. Vaibhav achieved this feat in just 440 balls. Earlier this record was in the name of Andre Russell, who had completed 1000 runs in 545 balls.
Nervous 90s in two consecutive playoff matches
Although Vaibhav Suryavanshi remained just 4 runs away from a century in this match, but with this he also created a unique record. He had scored 97 runs in the eliminator match and now he was out for 96 runs in Qualifier-2. He has become the first batsman in IPL history to suffer nervous 90s twice in consecutive playoff matches.
Heart breaking record also recorded
Vaibhav Suryavanshi has become a victim of nervous 90s for the third time in IPL 2026. Now his name has been added to Glenn Maxwell’s in the list of batsmen who have been out beyond 90 the maximum number of times in a season. Maxwell also became a victim of nervous 90s thrice in IPL 2014. However, cricket experts believe that at the age at which Vaibhav is performing, these figures show his ability in a stronger way.
Indian cricket got a new superstar?
