The very first ball that the Samastipur boy faced against the fast bowler went past the long-on boundary and the fourth ball was carelessly sent into the midwicket stand. Suryavanshi had won the first round against arguably the best bowler in the world.The batsman was out after playing a stormy innings of 39 runs in 14 balls and tears were visible in his eyes while returning to the pavilion, but by then the damage was done. More experienced partner Jaiswal carried his bat throughout the innings and troubled the MI bowlers with an unbeaten 77 off 32 balls. Talking about their explosive partnerships, the 24-year-old Jaiswal said, “It’s amazing to bat with Vaibhav. We both love to play our shots, so the way we are playing, we just keep giving positive messages to each other.” I have been playing for the last few years, so I just wanted to play as per the situation and give the best start to the team.Giving an insight into the duel between Suryavanshi and Bumrah, Jaiswal further said, “On the first ball he hit a six and I told him to just keep playing his shots. Bindas khel (stay chill and play your normal game), I told him.” Of course, Bumrah Bhai is one of the giants, so if Suryavanshi is scoring runs against him, it is surprising. This made us feel that we can beat other bowlers also. So, it was good for him to go out and play his shots. This took the pressure off me and then I could challenge someone else. It was a good partnership and we enjoyed batting with each other.”Rajasthan Royals captain Riyan Parag termed the pair as “the best”. “The number one opening pair. They have age. Vaibhav is unbelievable. It is not one-sided slogging. Jaiswal has been doing this for 3-4 years. The skills he has and the maturity he has – he is the best,” Parag said.The Mumbai Indians coach was asked about Suryavanshi’s fearless innings while facing players like Bumrah and Trent Boult. Mahela Jayawardene “We all knew his (Suryavanshi’s) talent the way he did last year. Last season we were able to overcome that. It is a challenge to stop him in every match. Bumrah probably missed the length a bit and he was prepared for it. “It will be interesting to see how he develops.”“It is quite fascinating to see a 17 or 16-year-old (15-year-old) boy playing the way he plays,” the MI skipper said. hardik pandya Said. “We talked about him a lot in our preparation before the game. The way he bats – the kind of fearlessness he has, the kind of shots he plays – it’s amazing to watch.”Of course, the more experienced Jaiswal, now the leading run-scorer (170) and Orange Cap holder, had ensured the win for the Royals. As Jayawardene said, “Don’t forget that the way Jaiswal batted was crucial. He took us on early and batted throughout the innings.”
