Rajasthan Royals defeated Delhi Capitals in the 62nd IPL match of 2026. Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who is the fastest batsman for Rajasthan Royals, has gained much popularity over the internet for his outstanding batting skills. The player was selected for the India A squad for the tri-series. However, ex-cricketer Mohammad Kaif has highlighted his one major flaw.
During the Rajasthan Royals vs Delhi Capitals match, players from both the teams have made several mistakes in catching, including Vaibhav Suryavanshi. Kaif made a strong statement about Suryavanshi, saying, "It's disheartening to see this kind of fielding in the IPL. Today, Yash Raj dropped KL Rahul's catch when he hadn't even opened his account. Vaibhav Suryavanshi also made several misfields. The most surprising thing is that Vaibhav Suryavanshi hasn't taken a single catch this season. He'll need to be even sharper when playing for India."
He further stated that it's the coaching staff and team management's responsibility to teach young players better fielding techniques. If Suryavanshi continues to perform like this, his debut could be difficult. Even if he does make his debut and his fielding doesn't improve, his long-term stay in the team will be difficult.
In this match, the Delhi Capitals batsmen performed brilliantly in the final overs and snatched victory from Rajasthan Royals. At one point in this match, Rajasthan Royals were dominating and heading towards victory, but 16 runs scored in one over by Non Ferreira ended their hopes of victory.
In this match, Rajasthan Royals batted first and scored 193 runs in 20 overs by losing 8 wickets. In this, Vaibhav Suryavanshi played an innings of 46 runs in just 21 balls, which included 5 fours and 3 sixes. Dhruv Jurel and Riyan Parag played half-century innings. After this, no batsman of the team could cross the double digit mark. Rajasthan Royals scored only 33 runs in the last 6 overs.
