In the 2026 IPL, 15-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi has made such a dazzling impression that, in jest, questions have begun to arise regarding his batting—specifically, whether he is a human being or an Artificial Intelligence (AI)! This notion was first floated by Pakistani analyst Nauman Niaz, and now, a legendary English player has also joined in with a similar lighthearted quip.
The ‘AI’ Discussion Turns into a Joke
The ‘AI’ joke surrounding Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s explosive batting has gone rapidly viral on social media. Pakistani analyst Nauman Niaz had jokingly suggested that Vaibhav must have an AI chip implanted in him, enabling him to hit such massive sixes. Vaibhav himself responded to this in a lighthearted manner, stating that this “chip” was installed by God, and he is simply making the most of the opportunity.
English Legend Joins the Fun
Now, England’s star wicketkeeper-batsman, Jos Buttler, has also become part of this running joke. He made a humorous revelation during a podcast hosted by former fast bowler Stuart Broad. Buttler remarked, “I messaged Jofra Archer and asked: ‘Is he AI? Did Elon Musk create this teenager who works magic with the bat?’ But no, he is real, and it is fantastic to watch him play. I think we might even get to see him in England this summer.” Buttler was referring here to India’s upcoming tour of England, scheduled for June.
Dominating Even Top Bowlers
Buttler also shared an interesting anecdote. He noted that Vaibhav has batted fearlessly, even against some of the world’s premier bowlers. Buttler recounted, “I was scrolling through Instagram and came across an interview with Pat Cummins. He was told that he had joined a rather exclusive club—alongside Bumrah and Hazlewood. It was then pointed out that he, too, had conceded a six to Vaibhav on the very first delivery.”
A Six on the Very First Ball! According to Buttler, Vaibhav Suryavanshi has smashed a six off the very first delivery from legendary bowlers such as Jasprit Bumrah, Josh Hazlewood, and Pat Cummins. He remarked, “For a 15-year-old player, this is incredible. Any coach would advise watching the ball first, but he decided to hit a six on the very first delivery. It is truly astonishing.”
A Flurry of Records
Vaibhav Suryavanshi has already made his mark in the IPL. In 2025, he scored the fastest century by an Indian player, and he has continued his magnificent form into 2026. His consistently aggressive batting is establishing him as the biggest star of this season.
