‘Very impressive’ – RR batting coach Vikram Rathour hails Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s maturity, temperament

After Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s knock against Chennai Super Kings in the 62nd IPL 2025 match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, Vikram Rathour commended his maturity and temperament. Suryavanshi is an exceptional batter, according to the RR hitting coach, who also mentioned that the management has been working with him for the past three to four months.

Rathour said it was good to see Suryavanshi perform well under pressure during the game, even though he claimed that everyone in the management knew what he could provide. The league’s top bowlers, including Khaleel Ahmed, Noor Ahmad, Anshul Kamboj, Ravindra Jadeja, and Ravichandran Ashwin, faced the star batter.

“Amazing. Rathour stated in the press conference following the game, “We have been working with him for a while now, maybe three or four months, and we have seen all these aspects, but it is great to see him performing well in games under pressure.”

These kinds of experiences will definitely make him a better player: Vikram Rathour

The 56-year-old saw that the start of the second inning brought some movement to the atmosphere. In the Powerplay overs, he believed the rising batter did not receive enough strikes. According to Rathour, Suryavanshi’s maturity and temperament are admirable, and his exposure to these kinds of circumstances may contribute in his development as a batter.

In a major match like today, the ball was doing a little as he entered the game. He didn’t get many deliveries and didn’t score many goals during the powerplay. He displayed an exceptional level of maturity and temperament. “He’ll undoubtedly become a better player in the future thanks to these kinds of experiences,” Rathour continued.

So far this season, Suryavanshi has had an incredible beginning. In seven innings, the southpaw has amassed 252 runs at an average of 36.00 and an impressive strike rate of more than 206. He broke the previous mark for the fastest IPL tonne by an Indian with a score of 101(38) against Gujarat Titans.
