The 2026 Indian Premier League (IPL) concluded with Royal Challengers Bangalore lifting the trophy after defeating Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad, but the biggest talking point of the season is Rajasthan Royals’ 15-year-old prodigy, Vaibhav Suryavanshi. During the post-match presentation, a humorous exchange between former Indian coach Ravi Shastri and the young batting sensation went viral after Shastri asked about the secret behind his explosive power hitting.

Amazed by the teenager’s ability to hit world-class bowlers for massive sixes, Shastri asked him, “How much milk do you drink daily?” to which Vaibhav cheekily replied, “I don’t drink milk now,” sparking laughter across the stadium. Despite his young age, Vaibhav dominated the presentation ceremony by sweeping five major awards, including Most Valuable Player, Orange Cap, Super Striker of the Season, Emerging Player of the Season, and the award for the Most Sixes.

At just 15 years and 65 days old, Vaibhav became the youngest player in IPL history to win the Orange Cap, shattering the previous record set by Gujarat Titans’ Sai Sudharsan at the age of 23. Furthermore, he broke Chris Gayle’s legendary single-season record of 59 sixes by smashing an incredible 72 sixes this season, cementing his status as the future of Indian cricket.
