Rajasthan Royals (RR) captain Riyan Parag and opener Vaibhav Sooryavanshi were involved in a funny incident as the franchise readies to face Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the Eliminator match of IPL 2026 on Wednesday in Mullanpur.

RR booked their spot in the playoffs after defeating the Mumbai Indians (MI) by 30 runs in their final league game in IPL 2026. As a result, the Punjab Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders were eliminated from the playoff race. The RR squad traveled from Mumbai to Mullanpur in preparation for the Eliminator match.

RR's young batting star, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, and captain Riyan Parag had a playful moment at the airport. With his powerful performances, Sooryavanshi, who is only 15 years old, has taken the cricket world by storm. He has also swiftly gained popularity among the paparazzi, who are keen to catch the batter from Bihar on video.

Photographers were seen asking Parag to pose with Sooryavanshi in a video that went viral on social media. However, the RR captain declined, saying, "Hum nahi hai film stars (We’re not film stars)," before walking away.

Sooryavanshi reacted with a smirk and stare in the direction of Captain Parag, and the moment was captured by the paparazzi.
