Rajasthan Royals (RR) management has addressed reports regarding teenage sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s recent frustration over his role as an "Impact Player." While the 15-year-old has been a breakout star of IPL 2026, a specific tactical shift has led to minor internal friction.

Reports emerged during SRH vs RR match on April 13, 2026, when RR fielding coach Trevor Penney revealed that Sooryavanshi was "not happy" about being left out of the main starting XI in recent games.

The internal "unhappiness" hasn't deterred national selectors. Following his explosive form, including the fastest fifty by an Indian in T20 history, reports suggest Sooryavanshi is a frontrunner for India’s T20I tour of Ireland in June 2026. If selected, he would become the youngest Indian ever to debut at the international level.
