Vaibhav Sooryavanshi must learn to bat in different gets in red-ball matches: CoachVaibhav Sooryavanshi returns to the BCCI’s Centre of Excellence (CoE), the place where his destiny changed.During the 2024 off-season, the junior selection panel, then headed by Tilak Naidu were short-listing players for a camp with an eye on the 2026 Under-19 World Cup. Naidu & his team were in two minds, given that Sooryavanshi was just 13 years old. But BCCI’s head of cricket VVS Laxman gave his approval. Sooryavanshi would join the camp and by September that year would hit a century in a Youth Test against Australia in Chennai.It is exactly two years since Sooryavanshi turned up for that camp at the CoE. On Sunday when he walks out for East Zone in the first round fixture of the Duleep Trophy against North East Zone, he will do so as a completely different player. He has won the Under-19 World Cup. Has set the IPL stage on fire in successive seasons. He is already the youngest ever Indian to make an international T20 debut. In the IPL, there is no reputed bowler he hasn’t taken down.
