Vaibhav Suryavanshi has done wonders in IPL 2026. This player has scored 404 runs with the help of 37 sixes this season. Suryavanshi scored a century in just 36 balls this season. Suryavanshi’s batting is discussed not only in India but also in England. Two former England captains praised Suryavanshi profusely. However, one of them said that Suryavanshi can retire only at the age of 21. Let us tell you why the former England captain said this?
Suryavanshi retires at the age of 21?
Former England captain Michael Vaughan and Alastair Cook were sitting in a podcast on the issue of Vaibhav Suryavanshi. Vaughan said in the podcast, ‘Cricket Gayle had scored the fastest IPL century in 30 balls. This kid has scored centuries in 35 and 36 balls. The Indian who has hit the most sixes in an IPL season is Abhishek Sharma, with 42 sixes and Suryavanshi has hit 37 so far. Is this player the best six-hitter in the world at present?
How much money is Suryavanshi getting?
Alistair Cook further said, ‘But how much money is Suryavanshi getting for this? How much has this 14 year old kid been signed for? I think Suryavanshi has got a two year deal. How much money will they get in the next season? What will happen when Suryavanshi says that he has to go to the auction? On this Vaughan further said, ‘I don’t think Rajasthan Royals will let Vaibhav Suryavanshi go in the auction. But I think Suryavanshi is going to visit Ireland. He should play in Team India.
Phil Tufnell, sitting in the podcast, said that it is possible that Vaibhav Suryavanshi may get tired at the age of 21, looking at the way he is progressing, it seems so. After this, Vaughan said that by that age, Suryavanshi will have a lot of money and he can retire.
