Jamieson's fiery send-off to Sooryavanshi sparks debate

Kyle Jamieson's aggressive send-off of teenage prodigy Vaibhav Sooryavanshi sparked outrage during the Delhi Capitals vs Rajasthan Royals IPL 2026 clash, despite DC securing a record chase victory.

New Zealand pacer Kyle Jamieson dismissed 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi for four runs in the IPL 2026 clash in Jaipur. The aggressive celebration, which included clapping and staring down the youngster, drew sharp criticism, with former India cricketer Priyank Panchal calling it "not a pretty sight."

Despite the controversy, Delhi Capitals secured a record chase victory against Rajasthan Royals. KL Rahul and Pathum Nissanka smashed 102 runs for the opening wicket, guiding DC to a seven-wicket win. Riyan Parag's 90 for Rajasthan was not enough to stop the record-breaking innings. catcross.org
