IPL 2026 | Vaibhav Suryavanshi Leads Rajasthan Royals To A Cruising Win Over Chennai Super Kings

Rajasthan Royals stormed to an eight-wicket win against Chennai Super Kings in their opening Indian Premier League match in Guwahati on Monday. Royals made good use of the overhead conditions to bowl out Chennai Super Kings for 127. It was a forgettable batting performance for CSK, who were put in to bat by Riyan Parag on a pitch that had been under cover for a while due to rain. The 15-year-old Sooryavanshi has made massive strides in his career since his record hundred in the IPL last season. His rare talent was on full display against a hapless CSK attack. With Sooryavanshi going ballistic from his end, his opening partner Yashasvi Jaiswal was happy to give the strike back to the fellow left-hander. Royals raced to victory in 12.1 overs. The result was a foregone conclusion after Sooryavanshi enjoyed an 18-run over. Chasing a modest target, the prodigiously talented Vaibhav Sooryavanshi scored a 17-ball 52 to help Rajasthan overhaul the target in 12.1 overs. This was after the pace duo of Nandre Burger (2/27) and Jofra Archer (2/19) and spinner Ravindra Jadeja (2/18) bowled out CSK for an under par 127. Jamie Overton top-scored for CSK with a 36-ball 43. #IPL #IndianPremierLeague #IPL2026 #RRVsCSK #RajasthanRoyals #ChennaiSuperKings About NDTV (English news channel): NDTV is India's Most-Trusted News Broadcaster with the latest updates in news, sports, entertainment and much more from within India and around the world.
