WATCH: RR's teenage sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi receives grand welcome after brilliant debut IPL season

Rajasthan Royals’ teenage batting prodigy Vaibhav Suryavanshi left everyone awestruck with his sensational performances in his debut IPL appearance in the tournament’s current season. The 14-year-old also attracted the eyeballs for becoming the youngest batter to score the fastest century in T20 cricket. He was one of the ‘top performers with the bat’ despite his side’s dismal run of form in the tournament.

Meanwhile, Vaibhav returned home after the conclusion of RR’s IPL 2025 campaign; after returning home, the teenage talent received a grand welcome from his family and relatives.

The video of Vaibhav Suryavanshi receiving a heartfelt reception also went viral on social media as soon as it was shared by the Rajasthan Royals on their official X handle (formerly Twitter).

“Left home for IPL as Vaibhav, welcomed back as Boss Babby Vaibhav!” read the caption of the video post shared by RR.
