15-year-old IPL star Sooryavanshi won a car, but can't drive it for three years

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, a young player for Indian Premier League side Rajasthan Royals, is just 15 years old but won a car at the IPL awards gala. However, he must wait another three years before he is legally allowed to get behind the wheel.

Just 15 years old, Indian cricket prodigy Vaibhav Sooryavanshi impressed so much during the Indian Premier League (IPL) season that he claimed a prestigious prize at the awards gala – a car. The catch is that the young man is not yet old enough to drive it.

Sooryavanshi has become one of the most talked-about players of the IPL season thanks to his age-defying performances on the pitch. The teenager has proved that age is no barrier to playing cricket at the highest level.

The car prize is his to keep, but Sooryavanshi can only get behind the wheel once he turns 18 – meaning he must wait another three years. In the meantime, the prize will likely remain a prized decorative piece in his family home.
