The exciting journey of IPL 2026 is now completely over. In the grand final match, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), captained by Rajat Patidar, defeated Gujarat Titans by 5 wickets and captured the IPL trophy for the second consecutive time.
In this entire season, many breath-taking matches were seen. The players created such a ruckus on the field that the fans were forced to bite their teeth. But friends, this time something has happened which has neither been seen before in the history of IPL nor will probably be seen again in the coming decades. Today we are going to tell you about those 4 great records of IPL 2026, breaking which is now like ‘Mission Impossible’ for any player or team.
This 15 year old kid shocked Bumrah-Cummins, took the orange cap!
This season, only 15-year-old young sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who played for Rajasthan Royals, did a feat which even the big giants could not imagine. Vaibhav has become the youngest batsman to win the Orange Cap in the history of IPL. This strong player took Rajasthan Royals to the playoffs with his stormy batting.
Vaibhav scored a total of 776 runs in 16 matches in the entire tournament at an alarming strike rate of $237.31, which included 1 century and 5 half-centuries. The great thing is that this child started destroying the world’s most feared bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood with the very first ball.
‘Double blast’ of two lions of the same team, created the Everest of runs
Gujarat Titans may have lost the final, but their two batsmen have together registered their names in golden letters in the pages of history. Captain Shubhman Gill and Sai Sudarshan created such havoc with the bat this season that both scored more than 700 runs.
- Shubhman Gill: Captain Gill scored 732 runs in 16 matches at a strike rate of $163.02 and an average of $45.75, which included 1 century and 6 half-centuries.
- Sai Sudarshan: Sudarshan also performed brilliantly and scored 722 runs in 17 matches at a strike rate of $157.99 and an average of $45.13. He scored 1 century and 8 half-centuries this season.
This is the first time in the history of IPL that two batsmen from the same team have scored more than 700 runs in the same season.
Single-handedly looted the entire fair! 15 year old boy won 5 big awards
Rajasthan’s Vaibhav Suryavanshi not only won the Orange Cap, but he single-handedly collected all the prizes in the award ceremony. Vaibhav won a total of 5 major awards this season, which no one seems capable of repeating now:
- Orange Cap: Was the top scorer of the season by scoring 776 runs.
- Most Valuable Player (MVP): Became the Most Valuable Player of the season with a total of $436.5$ points.
- Emerging Player of the Season: Got the award for best performance among the young players.
- Super Striker of the Season: This award was received for the incredible strike rate of $237.30$.
- Super Sixes of the Season: Hit the maximum number of 72 sixes in the entire tournament. With this, he also shattered the historical record of 59 sixes made by Chris Gayle in the year 2012.
‘Invincible’ in first 7 matches… still shamefully out of playoffs!
Punjab Kings fans will hardly be able to forget this season. This team, captained by Shreyas Iyer, started the season like a storm. In the first 7 matches, the team registered 6 wins and 1 match remained inconclusive. At that time everyone was saying that this time only Punjab will take the trophy.
But what happened next left everyone numb. In the second half of the tournament, Punjab’s fortunes changed such that in the next 7 matches they had to face 6 crushing defeats and could win only 1 match. Punjab had 15 points from a total of 14 matches with 7 wins, 6 losses and 1 inconclusive match. But due to this bad fall, they slipped to fifth place in the points table and despite a great start, were out of the race for the playoffs. This can be considered as the biggest upset and choke in IPL history.
