A mature 33-ball 57 (4x4 4x6) from Rajasthan Royals’ wunderkid Vaibhav Suryavanshi laid the foundation for their six-wicket win over Chennai Super Kings, thereby ensuring they end their poor 2025 IPL campaign with a win, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium here on Tuesday.
NEW DELHI:
Chasing 188 for the win, RR got off to a rapid start through Yashasvi Jaiswal and Suryavanshi, who added 37 runs inside four overs. Skipper Sanju Samson (41 – 31b, 3x4, 2x6) then stitched a formidable 98-run partnership with Suryavanshi that all but put the match to bed. Having demonstrated remarkable hitting ability in his nascent IPL career, the 14-year-old showed he has the game to bat the situation as well.
Samson’s dismissal off Ravichandran Ashwin in the 14th over brought brief excitement to the game as the off-spinner accounted for Suryavanshi four balls later.
