India’s young batsman Vaibhav Suryavanshi has performed brilliantly in the Under-19 series in England. He caught everyone’s attention with 355 runs in five matches and a fast century. He is only 14 years old but he has completely dominated the English bowlers with talent.
Delhi: On the one hand, the team of Shubman Gill did not get tired of praising the cricket in England Handingley and Edgbaston Test, on the other hand, they are playing in India, playing in England, are surprised to see the better talent of the young players of the Under -19 team. India has won the 5 Youth ODI series 3-2 and now the eye is on the youth test starting on July 12. Especially 14 -year -old Vaibhav Suryavanshi has played on English pitches so far, now it is discussed that where has been so much cricket talent from? Those who were calling Vaibhav ‘Vantime Miracle of IPL 2025 are now silent.
In 5 matches, 355 runs at 71 average from 174+ strike rate, including one 100 and one 50 and most specially in the series that only 5 batsmen scored more than 200 runs and Vaibhav alone of them more than 300. In both the teams except for him, no one is younger than 16 years, but in cricket, Vaibhav is ahead of these. That is why Mike Atherton is comparing Vaibhav to Rishabh Pant. England and other cricket countries have understood that the BCCI is not the number 1 in cricket only on the basis of money, the way you are establishing their dominance on the ground, it is more surprising than that.
Seeing the way Vaibhav’s name has shone in recent months, who will say that there is a shortage of talented batsman in India. The truth is that not every talent is getting a chance. If Shubman Gill and Yashasvi are in the race of senior, then Vaibhav is not far behind him.
In the fourth ODI of the series against England Under-19, 143 (13 fours and 10 sixes) in 78 balls) and 100 in 52 balls, and the fastest 100 in the under-19 ODI with it made a record of 100. Earlier, 86 in 31 balls in the last match of Northampton made its role. The people of England are shocked.
The coaching structure contributes to the strong bench strength of India, on the other hand, for it, the line-up of moving forward, which has no other match in the cricket world. Now neither the record of playing the youngest in IPL is a joke nor a shot of 6 on the first ball. In their third match, Mohammad Siraj, the famous Krishna and Washington Sundar made 100 off 35 balls at the Test attack. Okay, the age of Vaibhav is under suspicion, but it does not raise any question on the talent.
What is Vaibhav knowing after 100 of Youth ODI in England? They want to make 200 after breaking that record 100. Shubman Gill is a new inspiration for him. That is why they say that now we will try to play the entire 50 overs because the more runs, the more the team benefits. In England, no bowlers left them during that 100.
Now in England, India and England Under-19 teams have a new test to discuss Vaibhav. Will England Under -19 team be able to stop Vaibhav in Bekenham and Chelmsford in both 4 days in red ball cricket? For Vaibhav too, it is a big test to get out of the purview of limited over cricket.
In response, he is taking the name of Rocky Flintoff for equality in English cricket. The name of England all -rounder Andrew’s 17 -year -old son is 100 of first class cricket for Lakshire at the age of 16. One and 100 on Australia Tour with England Lions recently did not fit perfectly, but against India Under-19, with 107 off 91 balls, he showed how the talent is being seen.
At the age of 13, Rajasthan Royals had a contract of Rs 1.10 crore in IPL auction and noted that in 2008, it was not even born at the time of IPL. In England Tour, Vaibhav got a new Nick name of ‘Boss Baby’, from the talent of hitting sixes and if Chris Gayle ‘Bigg Boss’ is not wrong for Vaibhav.
