Young cricketer Vaibhav Suryavanshi is making headlines these days. At just 14 years old, he has already scored a century in the IPL and is now making waves with the U-19 team in Australia.
He was acquired by the Rajasthan Royals in the IPL 2025 auction, and now coach Vikram Rathour has issued a hilarious warning to him over a video call.
When the topic of fitness came up, the coach said, “Dekhne Mein Pata Chalega” This video has gone viral on social media.
Vaibhav is currently in Australia, where he is preparing for the second Youth Test with India U-19. The match begins on October 7 at the Great Barrier Reef Arena in Mackay.
Vaibhav was brilliant in the first Test, scoring 113 runs off 86 balls, including 9 fours and 8 sixes.
His century came off 78 balls, which was impressive. The team scored 428 runs in the first innings and defeated Australia by 58 runs. Vaibhav shared a 152-run partnership with Vedant Trivedi, which proved to be the turning point of the match.
Coach’s Hilarious Warning: Waiting for Fitness Test
Rajasthan Royals shared this video on their X handle, in which Vaibhav and coach Rathore are chatting on a video call. The coach first asked how he was doing, then moved on to fitness. Vaibhav responded with a smile, but the coach jokingly said,
“I’ll tell you when I see you, come first.”
Meaning, “You’ll find out when you see you, come first.” Vaibhav said “yes” with a calm smile, agreeing to the coach’s advice. Before ending the call, Vaibhav also saluted the other Royals staff members.
This light-hearted moment resonated with fans, as it shows how coaches motivate players.
Vaibhav’s Amazing Journey: Ranji Debut at 12
Vaibhav’s journey is like something out of a movie. He made his Ranji Trophy debut for Uttar Pradesh at the age of 12 years and 284 days, a record for the youngest player in the tournament.
He was acquired by Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2025 at the age of 13. There, he smashed a blistering century of 101 runs in 38 balls, the second-fastest century in IPL history.
It’s only behind Chris Gayle’s 30-ball ton. This is the fastest by an Indian. Now, Vaibhav is in form on the U-19 tour, and people hope he will soon shine at the senior level.
The Royals coaching staff is grooming him, and this fitness warning seems to be a part of that.
