Dinesh Karthik, a former cricketer for India, has praised 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi for his remarkable batting skills, comparing him to West Indies legend Brian Lara and Indian great Virender Sehwag. Sooryavanshi, playing for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2026, has already scored 400 runs in just nine matches, earning him the Orange Cap. Karthik noted that Sooryavanshi's power-hitting ability is impressive, suggesting that even Lara would envy this trait. He emphasized the young cricketer's fearless approach, likening it to Sehwag's aggressive style against formidable bowlers. Sooryavanshi's consistent performance includes scores of 52, 31, 39, 78, 0, 46, 8, 103, and 43, with a standout 16-ball 43 against Punjab Kings. His ability to dominate bowlers reflects a maturity beyond his years, making him a player to watch in the future.
