## User Question

> Suryavanshi's powerplay SR of 233.6 is extraordinary — but is he just feasting on pace? How does he fare against right-arm pace specifically in the powerplay?

## Correct Answer Pattern

> Vaibhav Suryavanshi's powerplay batting in IPL 2026 broken down by bowling type:
>
> | Bowling Type | Balls Faced (PP) | Runs | Strike Rate |
> |---|---|---|---|
> | Right-arm pace | [DATA: compute from data/_l2-claims.json suryavanshi phase=powerplay bowling_type=right_arm_pace season=2026 metric=balls] | [DATA: runs] | [DATA: SR] |
> | Left-arm pace | [DATA: bowling_type=left_arm_pace] | [DATA] | [DATA] |
> | Spin | [DATA: bowling_type=spin] | [DATA] | [DATA] |
> | **Overall PP** | **223** | — | **233.6** |
>
> This confirms whether Suryavanshi's dominance is style-agnostic or exploits a specific bowling type.
