No player name gets asked for over our counter more often right now than Vaibhav Suryavanshi. Signed by Rajasthan Royals at 13 as the youngest player ever to land an IPL contract, he became the youngest centurion in IPL history at 14 with a 35-ball hundred in the 2025 season, then added a second IPL century against Sunrisers Hyderabad in April 2026, still only 15. Every week a parent walks into our Edison store with a kid who wants “the Vaibhav bat,” and the honest answer is that SS makes several of them, at prices from $74.99 to $999.99. This guide covers every Suryavanshi model we carry, what separates them, and exactly what is on our rack as we publish.
Two housekeeping notes before the bats. First, spelling: SS prints both “Suryavanshi” and “Sooryavanshi” across this range, and you will see both on the stickers and in our listings; it is the same player and the same range. Second, stock: several of these are down to their last piece or two. Everything below was counted by hand against live inventory on the day of publication, and where a size is gone we say so.
The Suryavanshi Range at a Glance
The range is a ladder with four rungs. At the bottom, a junior Kashmir willow bat at $74.99 for kids stepping into leather-ball cricket. Next, the adult Premium Kashmir Willow at $124.99, in short and long handle. Then a complete junior kit set built around the Kashmir willow bat at $199.99 to $209.99. And at the top, the Players Edition in Grade 1 English willow: junior sizes at $349.99 to $374.99 and the full-size adult bat at $999.99. All of it sits in our SS collection, and Sareen Sports has been building bats in Meerut, India since 1969, so the name on the sticker is new but the workshop behind it is not.
SS Vaibhav Suryavanshi Players Edition English Willow — $999.99
The flagship. This is a hand-selected Grade 1 English willow blade with the concave players profile SS uses at the top of its range: mass pushed into the hitting zone, a rounded toe, and a sweet spot wide enough to reward both the front-foot drive and the cross-batted swing that made Suryavanshi famous. The willow is air-dried, and the photos on our product page are of the actual bats in stock rather than catalog renders, so the grain you see is the grain you get.
Stock reality: we are down to one piece, a short handle in the medium band (2lbs 9oz to 2lbs 10oz). The light band (2lbs 7oz to 2lbs 8oz) has sold through. At this price the sensible move is to come in and pick the bat up yourself, and if you are weighing it against other pro-endorsed blades at this level, our player edition and signature bats guide puts it alongside the SS Abhishek, CEAT Hitman and the rest of the tier.
Players Edition Junior English Willow — $349.99 to $374.99
The same idea scaled down: Grade 1 English willow, players-grade cleft selection, the same concave profile, in junior sizes 5 and 6 with a cane handle. This is adult-grade willow in a junior blade, which is exactly what most starter bats are not, and it is the difference between a genuine ping off the middle and the dull knock of a budget junior bat. For a serious academy kid facing a hard ball every week, it is the closest thing to what the name on the sticker actually represents.
Stock reality: one piece left in the country as far as our shelves are concerned, a size 6 in the very light band (2lbs 4oz to 2lbs 6oz) at $374.99. Every size 5 variant and the other size 6 weight bands have sold out. If your player needs size 5, ask us about the restock timeline rather than sizing up, because an oversized bat does more harm to a young technique than a plainer one — our bat size chart shows why.
Premium Kashmir Willow — $124.99, Short and Long Handle
This is the bat we sell the most of in this range, and the one we recommend to most adult club and tape-ball players who ask for a Suryavanshi bat. It is hand-selected Grade 1 Kashmir willow, the highest selection SS applies to its Kashmir blades, air-dried and finished with the brand's massive concave TON edges. The livery is the best-looking in the range: embossed bronze SS blocks over navy with bronze work down the spine and the Sunridges mark on the back.
It comes in two handle lengths. The short handle has two pieces in stock, both medium (2lbs 9oz to 2lbs 10oz); the heavy band (2lbs 11oz to 2lbs 12oz) is gone. The long handle has one medium piece left, and long-handle stock is always the first to vanish because tall players have so few options. If you are unsure whether Kashmir willow is a compromise — it is not, at the right level — our English willow vs Kashmir willow guide lays out where each makes sense.
Junior Kashmir Willow — $74.99
The entry point: an air-dried Kashmir willow junior bat in sizes 4 and 5 with the same TON concave edge shape and an embossed chrome sticker. At $74.99 it is the realistic first leather-ball bat for a kid who has been playing with a plastic or tennis-ball bat and wants the bat their hero's name is on. Fair warning: this model moves faster than anything else on this list and our live listing is the only reliable stock check — as we publish, size 4 is sold out and size 5 is on its final unit count, so if the page shows your size, do not sit on it.
The Full Junior Kit Set — $199.99 to $209.99
For a family starting from zero, the Suryavanshi junior kit set bundles the Kashmir willow bat with a kit bag, batting gloves, batting pads, a thigh guard, an elbow guard and an abdo guard. Size 3 is in stock at $199.99 and size 4 at $209.99; sizes 5 and 6 have sold through. Two honest notes we give every parent at the counter. The set does not include a helmet or chest guard, and a helmet is not optional once a child faces a hard ball — budget for one using our junior protective gear guide. And the kit is right-handed: slightly funny for a set named after one of cricket's most famous young left-handers, so if your player bats left-handed like Vaibhav does, contact us about left-handed availability before ordering.
Every Suryavanshi Model Compared

Which One Should You Buy?
For a child under about ten who is new to hard-ball cricket, the kit set is the best value on this page: bat plus five pieces of protection for roughly the price of the junior Players Edition bat alone, with only a helmet to add. For an adult who plays weekend league or hard tennis-ball cricket, the $124.99 Premium Kashmir Willow is the honest pick, and the gap between it and the $999.99 flagship is about willow, not workmanship. The Players Editions are for players, junior or adult, whose cricket has reached the level where English willow response actually changes their scoring — and whichever you choose, every natural-faced blade here needs oiling and knocking in before it faces a leather ball, which we do in-house; our bat preparation guide covers the process.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is Vaibhav Suryavanshi?
A left-handed Indian batter from Bihar who became the youngest player ever handed an IPL contract when Rajasthan Royals signed him at 13, then the youngest centurion in IPL history at 14 with a 35-ball hundred in 2025. He added a second IPL century in April 2026 against Sunrisers Hyderabad at 15. His name is also written Sooryavanshi.
What bat does Vaibhav Suryavanshi use?
He is an SS player, and SS states the Suryavanshi range is built to the specifications of its top players. The retail Players Edition is the closest production version of that setup; like every brand's pro bats, the blade he walks out with on TV is a custom-picked cleft rather than an off-the-shelf unit.
Is the $999.99 Players Edition worth it for a junior?
Usually not the adult one — it is a full-size short handle. The junior Players Edition at $349.99 to $374.99 exists precisely for that player, with the same Grade 1 willow in sizes 5 and 6. For everyone else's budget, the $74.99 junior Kashmir willow carries the same name and teaches the same game.
Is Kashmir willow good enough for real cricket?
For club, tape-ball and junior cricket, yes. The Premium Kashmir Willow here is hand-selected Grade 1, the top of SS's Kashmir ladder, and it plays leather-ball cricket happily. English willow earns its price through lighter pick-up for the same volume and a livelier response, which matters most at higher levels.
Do these bats come in left-handed versions?
Bats themselves are ambidextrous — only pads and gloves are handed. The one catch in this range is the junior kit set, which ships with right-handed gloves and pads; left-handed players should contact us about availability before ordering.
