Rajasthan Royals have suffered another defeat in IPL 2026. After the defeat against Gujarat Titans on May 9, the situation of reaching the playoffs has become an if-but. But, on one hand, Rajasthan Royals lost, on the other hand, after the same lost match, Vaibhav Suryavanshi alone overpowered 6 teams. He also broke the record made by Abhishek Sharma. What is the record of Abhishek that was broken and how Vaibhav Suryavanshi overpowered 6 teams, let us know.
The matter in which Vaibhav Suryavanshi has established his dominance over 6 teams in IPL 2026 is related to hitting the maximum number of sixes in the powerplay.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi has so far hit 32 sixes in the powerplay of IPL 2026, which is more than the total number of sixes hit in the powerplay of 6 teams. Lucknow Super Giants have hit 29 sixes in the powerplay in 52 matches of IPL 2026. Gujarat Titans have hit 28 sixes. Kolkata Knight Riders have hit 24 sixes. Whereas Royal Challengers Bangalore, Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals have hit 22-22 sixes.Not only is Vaibhav Suryavanshi ahead of 6 teams in terms of hitting sixes in the powerplay of IPL 2026, apart from that he has also broken the record of Abhishek Sharma.
Abhishek Sharma is the player who has hit the most sixes in the powerplay of one season of IPL. He has made this record in his name by hitting 29 sixes in the powerplay in IPL 2024. But, Vaibhav Suryavanshi has so far hit 32 sixes in the powerplay of IPL 2026.Vaibhav Suryavanshi is not far away from the Indian record made by Abhishek Sharma of hitting most sixes in a single season of IPL.
He has hit 40 sixes so far in IPL 2026. Whereas the record made by Abhishek Sharma in one season is of 42 sixes. It is expected that in the coming matches he will also break that record of Abhishek Sharma.
