Rajasthan Royals (RR) and India U19 batting talent Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is gearing up for the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2026) in style. The inaugural champions have already begun their pre-season camp and Sooryavanshi lit up one of the sessions by giving a testament to his sheer hitting prowess.

In a video shared by the RR franchise on their social media, the young left-hander ended up breaking a water pipe after hitting a massive six during training.

Before that, in the U19 Asia Cup, he scored 261 runs in five innings at an average of 52.20 and a strike rate of 182.51 and also registered one of the fastest T20 hundreds, equalling Rishabh Pant (32 balls). Vaibhav Sooryavanshi also proved his mettle on the away tours of England and Australia last year across formats.
