Vaibhav Sooryavanshi Faces Challenges and Support Amid Early India Call-UpPreviousNext

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, a 15-year-old cricket prodigy, has faced challenges during the India A tour in Sri Lanka, including modest scores and a recent on-field altercation with a Sri Lanka A player. Former cricketer Wasim Jaffer advised him to manage his temper, while Krishnamachari Srikkanth praised his potential but urged patience and long-term support. Sooryavanshi's early India call-up has sparked comparisons with Sachin Tendulkar, though experts caution against direct comparisons.
