AI chip in bat became the biggest talking point after young star Vaibhav Sooryavanshi gave a funny reply to a strange question. The 15-year-old Rajasthan Royals player was asked if his bat had any artificial help. He smiled and said it was a gift from God. His light joke quickly went viral on social media.
The talk about an AI chip in bat started after his stunning performance in IPL 2026. He smashed 103 runs in just 37 balls against Sunrisers Hyderabad. His fearless batting shocked fans and experts. Some even joked that his bat should be checked.
A cricket analyst had suggested that such power and timing looked unreal. But Sooryavanshi answered all doubts with his bat. He continued to score runs with ease and confidence. His style shows skill, not any hidden technology.
In another match against Punjab Kings, he made history. He became the fastest player to reach 400 runs in an IPL season. He achieved this in just 167 balls. This broke the old record of Andre Russell. He also outperformed players like Nicholas Pooran and Glenn Maxwell.
Sooryavanshi is now leading the Orange Cap race in IPL 2026. He has scored 400 runs in nine matches. His strike rate is over 238. He has also hit 37 sixes so far.
The young player is proving that talent and hard work matter most. The “AI chip” talk may be funny, but his performance is real and special.
