Just saw news about this Vaibhav Sooryavanshi from Rajasthan Royals and honestly,it's just mind-blowing stuff . Scoring 776 runs in one IPL season is not a joke.
And the best part is,this wasn't some fluke ah . He actually wrote down goal in his phone notes before the tournament started that he wanted to score 700 runs . That level of focus is something else only .
He didn't just get the Orange Cap . He collected five major individual awards during presentation ceremony,including Most Valuable Player and Emerging Player of the Season . Five awards in one night.
And tbh,this is the kind of dedication that really stands out.
Even though Royal Challengers Bengaluru won final against Gujarat Titans,everyone was talking about Sooryavanshi . His strike rate was 237.31 and he hit 72 sixes in the season . Seventy-two.
Few things standing out clearly from his performance:
- Scored massive 776 runs to clinch Orange Cap in IPL 2026 .
- Had set a personal goal of 700 runs in his phone notes before season began.
- Aims to help Rajasthan Royals win trophy and eventually play for India .
But he seems very humble about it . He said,"It feels good when I watch matches on TV. I used to see that a player got an Orange Cap... God has done all this for me." That's a good attitude to have .
He also talked about how important IPL is for young guys like him . "The IPL is the number one league in the world of cricket... It is a very good platform for youngsters and domestic players to show their talent," he said . And he's right.
This league really does give a chance for domestic players to show what they can do on biggest stage .
Now with this kind of performance,the pressure to play for India will be immense . He's a name everyone will be watching now…
