Vaibhav Sooryavanshi Scores 44, Attacks Mohammed Siraj in Duleep Trophy Final
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, the 15-year-old East Zone opener, impressed with a brisk 44 off 37 balls in the Duleep Trophy 2026 final against South Zone at Chennai. He notably attacked India pacer Mohammed Siraj, hitting multiple boundaries and a six in one over, putting pressure on the bowling attack. Despite a strong start and a 100-run opening partnership with Abhimanyu Easwaran, Sooryavanshi was dismissed by Chama V Milind. The match also featured light-hearted sledging from South Zone captain Tilak Varma, which preceded Sooryavanshi's wicket.
