He may have missed the CBSE Class 10 board examinations, but this 14-year-old wonderkid is certainly not missing any opportunity to send the ball soaring out of the stadium.
Big Responsibility: Captaincy Role at a Young Age: After attending Rajasthan Royals’ preparatory camps, Vaibhav Suryavanshi joined the DY Patil Blue side for the DY Patil T20 Cup. What stands out even more is the responsibility placed on his young shoulders. He is captaining a team that includes established names like Yash Dhull, Sarfaraz Khan and Shashank Singh. Leading senior players at just 14 speaks volumes about the belief the management has in his talent and temperament.
Arjun Tendulkar’s All-Round Show: While Vaibhav set the tone, Arjun Tendulkar ensured there were no late hiccups. Playing the finisher’s role to perfection, he remained unbeaten on 55 off 29 deliveries. His composed knock complemented the captain’s fireworks as DY Patil Blue completed the chase with five balls to spare.
Mad hitting as always: Chasing a massive target of 220 against Indian Navy, DY Patil Blue lost opener Yash Dhull early. But Vaibhav was simply too powerful to contain. Taking charge of the innings, he unleashed a stunning assault — smashing 5 sixes and 7 fours in a breathtaking 63 off just 19 balls. The Indian Navy bowlers had no answers as the teenager went on a rampage.
