Young Star Vaibhav Wins the Orange Cap

Young Rajasthan Royals batter Vaibhav Suryavanshi continued his brilliant form in IPL 2026. He scored 43 runs against Punjab Kings and completed 400 runs this season. With this achievement, he moved to the top of the leading run scorers list and claimed the Orange Cap.

After the match, Yashasvi Jaiswal presented the Orange Cap to Vaibhav. When asked about being the senior player alongside a teenager, Jaiswal responded humorously. He said he is still young himself, but Vaibhav is even younger. He also praised Vaibhav’s fearless batting style.
