IPL 2026: The Indian Premier League (IPL) has always been a breeding ground for overnight superstars, but few ascents have been as meteoric as that of 15-year-old batting prodigy Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. Following a historic, record-shattering campaign with the Rajasthan Royals, the teenage wonderkid’s commercial value is skyrocketing off the field just as fast as his strike rate on it.
According to an industry expert speaking to NDTV on the condition of anonymity, Sooryavanshi has effectively doubled his brand endorsement fees. Prior to his historic run, the explosive left-hander from Bihar was commanding deals in the neighborhood of Rs 1 crore each, locking in initial corporate partnerships with major brands like Complan and Red Bull. However, his historic exploits have triggered an absolute corporate gold rush. Brands are now rushing to secure the teenager’s signature, and his camp is actively seeking fees ranging between Rs 1.5 crore and Rs 2 crore per deal.

Sooryavanshi concluded his sensational season as the youngest player in the tournament’s history to win the coveted Orange Cap, amassing a staggering 776 runs across 16 innings. Even more impressive was his trend-setting strike rate of 237.30, powered by a record-breaking 72 sixes that fundamentally rewired the approach to powerplay batting.
