After his stellar IPL 2026 season, many fans came to the Civil Service Cricket Club stadium hoping to see the young left-hander make his first appearance for the senior Indian team. However, the team management refused to hand Vaibhav the debut cap for the first T20I against Ireland.
Every time the teenager stepped onto the ground near the boundary, the crowd greeted him with loud cheers and applause. The fans made sure he felt their love and support, even though he was not playing with Vaibhav, enjoying every moment in Belfast.

You should not blame them for your situation. You should put yourself in their shoes and think.”
