IPL 2026: 'Kitne Doodh Peete Ho?' Vaibhav Sooryavanshi blushes with Reply after Ravi Shastri Question
A special moment in the IPL 2026 final awards ceremony unfolded between Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Ravi Shastri, as the former walked up for an interview following winning the Most Valuable Player of the season award.
At just 15 years old, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi from Bihar has emerged as one of the most explosive talents in modern cricket. Playing for the Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2026, the left-handed opener delivered a season for the ages, blending raw power, fearless intent, and record-breaking consistency. His performances not only rewrote history books but also positioned him as a future superstar of Indian and world cricket.

Dominant Performance and Award Haul in IPL 2026
Sooryavanshi played 16 matches and amassed a staggering 776 runs at an average of 48.50 and a blistering strike rate of 237.30. He smashed 1 century and 5 half-centuries, hammered 63 fours and a record 72 sixes, and became the youngest player ever to claim the Orange Cap as the season’s highest run-scorer.
His impact went far beyond numbers. Sooryavanshi earned multiple Player of the Match awards, including standout knocks in high-stakes games like the Eliminator against Sunrisers Hyderabad. The youngster won some big accolades including the Orange Cap and MVP of the season.
These feats made him one of the most decorated young players in IPL history. He consistently dominated powerplays, took on established international bowlers twice or thrice his age and showcased his class in front of the world.
The Viral Ravi Shastri Exchange: Innocent Question, Regional Humor
Amid the on-field fireworks, a light-hearted off-field moment with commentator Ravi Shastri went viral, perfectly capturing Sooryavanshi’s youthful charm and sparking widespread amusement on social media.
In a post-match interview, Shastri asked the teenager, “Aap kitne doodh peete ho roj? (How much milk do you drink daily?)".
Vaibhav, laughing shyly, replied, “Abhi doodh nahi pee raha hoon.” (I don’t drink milk now).
On the surface, it was a wholesome, innocent exchange — Shastri likely inquiring about the young batter’s diet and strength-building habits, a common question for aspiring athletes. Sooryavanshi has currently indulged himself into strict diet as the youngster admitted to work on fitness as well.
