RR Prodigy Vaibhav Suryavanshi Honored with India's Highest Civilian Award for Children
Rajasthan Royals' 14-year-old batting sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi has been conferred with the Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Puraskar, India's highest civilian honor for children. The award was presented by President Droupadi Murmu at Rashtrapati Bhavan in recognition of his extraordinary contributions to the field of sports.
The prestigious ceremony took place just days after the Bihar opener sent shockwaves through the cricketing world by hammering a record-breaking 190 in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, including the fastest List A century in history. The timing of the award serves as a formal acknowledgement of his status as one of India's most promising athletic talents.
Following the celebrations in Delhi, Suryavanshi is expected to link up with the India Under-19 squad, which is scheduled to depart for South Africa on December 30, shifting his focus back to the 22 yards after conquering domestic records and receiving presidential accolades.

When you look at this lineup, the captaincy will be the most decisive factor. If you want to replicate the kind of personality Sanju Samson brought to Rajasthan Royals, Dhruv Jurel is probably the closest match.
