Vaibhav Suryavansh clashed with Sri Lanka A player

India spin bowling coach Sairaj Bahutley has addressed the controversy surrounding teenage batting sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi after heated scenes erupted following India’s dramatic defeat to Sri Lanka A in the Tri-Nation A series in Dambulla.The 15-year-old found himself in the headlines after clashing with Sri Lanka A players at the end of a tense encounter at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium on Monday. India A suffered a heart-breaking defeat in the Super Over, leaving their hopes of reaching the final in limbo, but the post-match controversy soon became the major talking point. Fresh details later emerged that Sri Lanka A player Vishen Halambage allegedly initiated the exchange after the hosts’ win.“The match is over…now you go home,” Halambaj reportedly told Suryavanshi. This comment prompted a reaction from the young Indian batsman, who responded verbally before pushing the Sri Lankan player. The situation escalated when both players came face to face, before teammates came forward to separate them.Speaking about the incident during a press conference, Bahutley described the episode as unfortunate but urged caution before passing judgment.“It was an unfortunate incident, but we don’t know how it was provoked. As far as I know.” grandeurHe’s a very laid-back boy.”The former India spinner said the matter would be addressed internally and stressed the importance of educating young cricketers about conduct on the field.“It was unfortunate, but I’m sure there are experienced coaches there who will explain things to them. I think Sri Lankan players should also be educated on how to behave and the same applies for us.”Bahule emphasized that Suryavanshi is still learning and taking on important responsibilities as a young international representative.“We will make sure he is given information as to why this happened. He is a young kid who has a lot of responsibilities and he is representing India. I think there will be some understanding, and I am sure he will not repeat it.”The Indian coach also expressed hope that such incidents can be prevented in future.“I think such incidents can be avoided.”Despite the confrontation, players from both teams completed the customary handshake after the match.
