Vaibhav Suryavanshi (Ex-Cricbuzz)

Another disappointing performance for Vaibhav Suryavanshi, as the teenage batting sensation once again failed to convert a promising start into a big score in the ongoing tri-series.Representing India A against Sri Lanka A in the fourth match of the tournament, the 15-year-old looked in good form early on after Sri Lanka A won the toss and elected to bowl first. Suryavanshi scored 21 runs in just 14 balls with the help of three fours and a six, before he gave up his wicket while attempting another aggressive shot. The dismissal came courtesy of Sahan Arachige, who tempted the youngster to drive outside the off stump. The ball turned slightly away, taking the outside edge and looping towards point, where Wanuza Sahan completed a good catch. She made her India A debut in Match 1 vs Sri Lanka A on 9 June 2026 and got off to an aggressive start, hitting three fours against Mohammed Shiraz and Chamika Karunaratne. However, his stay lasted only 12 deliveries. Attempting to loft the ball high up the infield, he failed to gain the required height, leading to a spectacular diving catch by Sri Lanka A captain Sahan Arachige.In Match 2 vs Afghanistan A on 11 June 2026, after a modest score in the opening match, Suryavanshi bounced back with an entertaining inning of 44 runs off 22 balls. Batting at a strike rate of 200, he hit nine fours and looked to be on his way to a half-century before becoming the victim of Abdullah Ahmadzai. The young opener was caught behind the wicket by wicketkeeper Ishaq Rahimi. A familiar pattern is emergingThroughout the tournament, Suryavanshi has displayed fearless strokeplay. However, scores of 14, 44 and 21 outline a rising pattern, with a sharp start filled with boundaries but no significant conversions.
