Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, at just 15 years old, celebrated his birthday by scoring a 15-ball half-century against Chennai Super Kings. This marked his third fifty in eight IPL matches. Partnering with Yashasvi Jaiswal, they achieved a 75-run opening stand, helping Rajasthan chase down a target of 128 in just 12.1 overs. The team's bowlers restricted Chennai to 127 runs, with Nandre Burger taking 2-26 and earning player of the match honors. Rajasthan's next match is against Gujarat Titans, while Chennai faces Punjab Kings.
"Sooryavanshi was dismissed for 52 after 17 balls, including five sixes and four fours, after sharing a blistering 75-run stand with Jaiswal."
"I think of defending, but the plan was to decide the game in the powerplay as we'd restricted them to a low score, Sooryavanshi said."
"The Under-19 World Cup winner credited Rajasthan coach Kumar Sangakkara and staff for backing his attacking instincts."
"Rajasthan's quick chase followed a brilliant bowling effort, reducing Chennai to 41-4 at the end of the powerplay."
