Opting to bat first, Rajasthan Royals found themselves in early trouble at 9 for 2 in just the second over before Vaibhav and Ravindra Jadeja steadied the ship with a composed partnership.

Shubman Gill achieved multiple unprecedented feats during his century in the second qualifier of the 2026 IPL against Rajasthan Royals (RR) in New Chandigarh. The 26-year-old made 104 runs in 53 balls.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi brought up his 1000th run in style. It came off a delivery from Jason Holder in the 15.1 over.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi was seven sixes away heading into the match from overtaking Chris Gayle's tally of maximum sixes in an IPL season.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi scripted history during the IPL 2026 Eliminator, becoming the youngest player to score 600 runs in a season and breaking Chris Gayle's record for the most sixes in a single IPL edition.

Shubman Gill’s stunning century powered Gujarat Titans into the IPL 2026 final while also placing him alongside Virat Kohli in an elite captaincy run-scoring list.

As the IPL 2026 playoffs roll on to crown a new champion, here are the three franchises that have carved their names deepest into playoff history.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi on Wednesday ensured that Rajasthan Royals reached Qualifier 2 comfortably. The 15-year-old was at his brutal best, smashing 12 sixes and five fours to pile up 97 off just 29 deliveries against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL 2026 Eliminator.
