Vaibhav Sooryavanshi Challenges: IPL 2026 has come and has also brought 10 new challenges for Vaibhav Suryavanshi. Now the onus is on Suryavanshi to decide how many of them they break? However, looking at the current form of Vaibhav, who has turned 15, efforts can be made to deal with those challenges.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi in Rajasthan Royals jersey will start his IPL 2026 campaign against Chennai Super Kings. Now the question is, what will be the 10 challenges in front of Vaibhav Suryavanshi in IPL 2026?

10 challenges before Vaibhav Suryavanshi

1. Vaibhav Suryavanshi's biggest challenge is to end Rajasthan Royals' wait for the title win. Before IPL 2026, Vaibhav himself has said that his first intention is to make the team win the trophy. How successful Vaibhav will be in this will depend on his game as well as the performance of other players.
2. The biggest score so far in IPL has come from the bat of Chris Gayle.
   The second challenge before Vaibhav Suryavanshi in IPL 2026 will be to break him. He himself has expressed his wish regarding this during BCCI's NAMAN Award.
3. Setting the record of most sixes in an inning of IPL will be Vaibhav Suryavanshi's third challenge.
4. Neither have 6 sixes been hit in an over in IPL nor has Vaibhav Suryavanshi himself ever hit 6 sixes in an over at any level. In such a situation, achieving that feat in IPL 2026 will be his fourth big challenge.
5. Vaibhav Suryavanshi made his IPL debut last season, where he played 7 matches and scored 252 runs with 1 century.
   But, this time the intention is to do something big. In such a situation, winning the Orange Cap is a big challenge for Vaibhav Suryavanshi.
6. Vaibhav Suryavanshi scored a century in IPL in his debut season itself. Then he became the fastest Indian batsman to score a century in 35 balls. But the chance to break the IPL record of century in 30 balls held by Chris Gayle will be a big challenge for him in IPL 2026.
7. Vaibhav Suryavanshi will also have the challenge of breaking the record of scoring most IPL runs as a teenager.
   Currently this record is in the name of Prithvi Shaw with 598 runs. Whereas Vaibhav Suryavanshi currently has 252 runs in IPL. Meaning, as soon as he scores 347 runs in IPL 2026, he will break Prithvi Shaw's record.
8. Vaibhav Suryavanshi will also have the challenge of making the record of scoring most centuries in a single season of IPL. Currently this record is in the name of Virat Kohli and Jos Buttler with 4 centuries each.
9. The record of hitting the maximum number of 59 sixes in one season of IPL is in the name of Chris Gayle. When Gayle made that record, he was 1 year old.
   But, now 15 year old Vaibhav will have the challenge of breaking that record.
10. Breaking the record of winning the most Player of the Match awards in a single season of IPL will also be a big challenge for Vaibhav Suryavanshi. Now if he is determined to make Rajasthan Royals the champion, then it is possible that he can overcome this challenge also.
