Mohammed Shami Says High-Pressure Cricket Makes Youngsters Mature Early
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi enjoyed an impressive Duleep Trophy campaign despite this being his first major exposure to red-ball cricket. He also scored an 81-ball 92 against Central Zone in the semifinal, becoming the youngest player to score a Duleep Trophy half-century.
"Most of these youngsters are already quite mature. With the level of cricket they play today, in the IPL and other high-pressure tournaments, maturity comes early, so you don't need to over-coach them," Shami said.
