The former selector of India says that Vaibhav Suryavanshi vs. Sachin Tendulkar: ‘He is special, but do not hurry it. Cricket news

Fourteen -year -old Vaibhav Suryavanshi has emerged as cricket’s newest sensation after the youngest debut in the Indian Premier League history after its debut for Rajasthan Royals on April 19, 2025. In the IPL 2025 mega auction, the young batsman purchased by RR for ₹ 1.10 crore by RR scored 34 off 20 balls in his first match and later became the youngest player to score IPL Shatabdi in 14 years and 32 days. He got his opportunity after RR captain Sanju Samson’s injury, when he began to rise to Saryavanshi’s prominence. His first innings consisted of six six for the first six, with his aggressive batting style. On 28 April, he scored 101 off just 38 balls against Gujarat Titans, achieving a remarkable milestone. His century came in 35 delivery, which is the second fastest in the history of IPL and the fastest by an Indian player behind Chris Gayle’s 30 balls. Born on March 27, 2011 in Bihar, Suryavanshi started his cricket journey at the age of four under the guidance of his father. He joined a Cricket Academy at the age of nine and attracted attention for the first time when he represented Bihar’s U-19 squad in the Vinu Mankad Trophy as 12 years old.

His recent demonstrations include a notable 190-row of 90 balls off 90 balls in India before his visit to England in India. In the 2024 ACC U -19 Asia Cup, he scored 76 runs in 46 balls against UAE and scored 67 runs in 36 delivery in the semi -finals against Sri Lanka. The performance of the young cricketer has compared cricket veteran Sachin Tendulkar, who made his international debut for India in November 1989 at the age of 16 against Pakistan at the age of 16.

Former India spinner and BCCI selector Venkatapathi Raju has advised patience about Suryavanshi’s debut of Suryavanshi’s senior team. “Yes, yes, it will take a lot of time. He must be one of those who need to do well in nine-19 World Cups. They have to perform a lot in domestic cricket. Four-day game and we can give time. See, see, talent-wise, we have already seen him, what can he do with a white ball, isn’t it?” Raju said. Quiz: Who is that IPL player? Raju also addressed comparisons with Tendulkar, emphasizing the importance of continuity and experience in the long -term format. “It depends on stability, okay? We believe a firm. We can talk about a person like Sachin, okay? First, the start of the Ranji Trophy, he got 100. The Dalip Trophy, the Dalip Trophy, he got 100, he got 100. The rest of India, the rest of India, all the three-day games got three-day games. All five-day games. Suryavanshi is currently with India’s U-19 team in England, which has continued its development in international cricket. His rapid growth through domestic cricket ranks and impressive performance in the IPL has established him as one of the most promising young talents of cricket.
