Ravindra Jadeja has identified Vaibhav Suryavanshi as the new 'Rockstar' within the Rajasthan Royals team, a moniker previously bestowed upon himself by the late Shane Warne. Jadeja, speaking on Star Sports, lauded Suryavanshi for his exceptional talent, maturity, and composure, noting his clear understanding of the game.

Jadeja's selection of Suryavanshi for the 'Rockstar' title appears to be a symbolic passing of the torch, celebrating a young player who displays the talent and composure to carry forward a legacy shaped by Warne's belief.
