Fifteen‑year‑old Sooryavanshi Tears Apart Chennai with 15‑ball Fifty in IPL
- On Monday, Rajasthan Royals defeated Chennai Super Kings by eight wickets in the IPL 2026 opener at Guwahati. The Royals chased the 127-run target in 12.1 overs, securing a dominant win and major net run rate boost.
- Royals bowlers dismantled CSK for 127 in 19.4 overs after Captain Riyan Parag won the toss and chose to bowl. The visitors collapsed during a disastrous powerplay, slipping to 41/4 and never recovering momentum.
- Teen sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi starred on debut, racing to a half-century in 15 balls with five fours and five sixes. Yashasvi Jaiswal anchored the chase unbeaten on 38, while Shimron Hetmyer finished with 18 off nine balls.
- Returning to Rajasthan Royals, Ravindra Jadeja claimed two wickets alongside Jofra Archer and Nandre Burger, each taking two. Every bowler contributed as CSK never recovered despite Jamie Overton's resilient 43.
- Sanju Samson failed on his CSK debut, dismissed for six by Nandre Burger. Both teams, bottom-placed last season, traded Samson and Jadeja ahead of this IPL campaign to reshape their rosters.
