Key Points
At just 15 years old, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has already become one of the most talked-about names in the Indian Premier League. The Rajasthan Royals opener has stunned fans and opponents alike with his fearless batting, often taking on bowlers twice his age and experience. Yet behind the aggressive strokes and confident demeanor lies a teenager who unwinds in the most unexpected way-by watching cartoons.
Speaking after a recent match, Sooryavanshi admitted that cartoons are his go-to ritual before stepping onto the field. “Dimag me kuch nahi chalta hai. Aaj bhi har din match se pahle hum bhi cartoon dekhte hain, aadat hai dekhne ka. Abhi bhi hum cartoon dekh rahe hain, par focus game par bhi hai,” he said, explaining how the habit helps him stay calm and focused.
On Wednesday, Rajasthan Royals secured a convincing 40-run victory over Lucknow Super Giants, though Sooryavanshi had an off day, scoring just eight runs before falling to Mohsin Khan. Despite the setback, the young opener remained upbeat, promising to bounce back in the next fixture. “Accha karenge agla match mein. Jeet ke 2 points liye, aage badi playoffs ki taraf,” he added, highlighting his determination to contribute as the Royals edge closer to a playoff berth.

Sooryavanshi’s rise has been nothing short of remarkable. Balancing school life with the pressures of professional cricket, he has quickly become a fan favorite. His ability to remain grounded, even as expectations mount, is a testament to his maturity. Watching cartoons may seem like a childlike indulgence, but for him, it is a way to disconnect from the intensity of the sport and embrace the joy of being a teenager.
As Rajasthan Royals continue their strong campaign, all eyes will be on Sooryavanshi to see how he handles the spotlight. Whether he’s smashing sixes or quietly enjoying his favorite animated shows, one thing is clear - the prodigy is carving his own path in cricket, blending youthful innocence with sporting brilliance.
