Rajasthan Royals' forgettable IPL 2025 campaign

However, Vaibhav Suryavanshi emerged as the brightest prospect for the Royals, having been bought for ₹1.1 crore. The 14-year-old, who hit his first-ever IPL delivery for a maximum, aggregated 252 runs in seven matches at 36 alongside a strike rate of 206.55.
