The 15-year-old, who did not have the best of his days on the field yesterday, was provoked by Sri Lanka A team players. Footage from the match shows that, out of anger, Sooryavanshi pushes an opposing team member, Vishen Halambage, further escalating the heat.
For Tennekoon, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is a generational talent who needs to put his focus entirely on the game. “He is a generational talent… You focus on your game and cut out the outside noise. Today, unfortunately, you couldn't get going. But that's part of the game, you can't get going every day,” the former Sri Lanka captain Tennekoon told as quoted by Sportstar.
As he waited for a long time, the former cricketer was spotted discussing something with the India A team captain Tilak Varma. At last, when Vaibhav Sooryavabshi arrived, the veteran got his moment to talk with the budding talent.
The former skipper is impressed by Sooryavanshi's batting skills
“I was really impressed by his batting in the IPL. And hitting those sixes and fours the way he does is something unbelievable. I hope he continues in this way,” Tennekoon told the media house.
High expectations for the teen batter
In 16 matches and as many innings, the southpaw accumulated 776 runs with a mind-blowing strike rate of 237.30 to claim multiple individual awards and to help the team qualify for the play-offs. After the heroics in IPL 2026, the Bihar-born got his maiden call-up as well for the senior cricket team.
The Ajit Agarkar-led selection panel named the emerging batter for the T20Is against Ireland, England, and for the 2026 Asian Games as well.
