Funny banter between Rajasthan Royals (RR) opening batsman Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) batter Arshin Kulkarni was witnessed post-IPL 2025 clash. Rajasthan Royals shared a video of this funny, hilarious exchange on their social network with an objective of showing the fun and camaraderie between both teams.
Arshin jokingly said to Vaibhav Suryavanshi, “14 saal ka ladka humko paagal bana raha hai,” hinting at how the young lad is making waves with his performance.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi made a remarkable IPL debut at Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on April 19, making him the youngest player to ever participate in the tournament. At 14 years of age, the batter cleared the ball for a six off the first ball he faced and went on to score a remarkable 34 runs off only 20 balls. His aggressive style and fearless batting attracted many fans and critics’ attention.

Following the match, Arshin Kulkarni requested Vaibhav Suryavanshi bat, commenting, “Yeh bat bahut accha hai.” One of Kulkarni’s fellow players made a joke saying the RR opener was already getting 30 bats in a year, which made Suryavanshi laugh and clarify that he did not have a bat to spare.
In fact, he had borrowed Sanju Samson’s bat for that match. “Yeh bat bahut accha hai” (I love this bat),” Kulkarni said. “Usko saal ke 30 bat mil rahe hain” (He already gets 30 bats a year),” teammate of Kulkarni’s said. Suryavanshi responded, “Baad mein bhijwa doonga yaar bat. Bat nehi hae, kasaam se bat bhijwa doonga. Nehi hae bat match khelne ke liye, sanju bhaiya ke bat se match khela.”
The exchange that Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Kulkarni shared was a true sample of the kind of friendship and fun one could have while playing such a competitive game with all the seriousness. A 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi, at his very tender age, today evidenced real maturity and quite dealt with everything with humor and humility.
The debut’s most impressive performance, alongside a sparkling disposition, rendered him an instant favorite with fans, and now, one can’t wait to see how things turn out as years go by.
