Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s childhood coach Manish Ojha has openly slammed the India National Cricket Team head coach Gautam Gambhir and the team management for continuously overlooking the teenage batting sensation in the ongoing T20I series against the West Indies.
Ojha has expressed his frustration after the 15-year-old was kept out of the playing XI in the first three matches of the ongoing five-match T20I series against the West Indies. He has criticized India's selection decisions and accused the team management of following a dictatorial approach. Amid this, Virat Kohli takes his first step on LinkedIn at 37 with a long post.
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s childhood coach Manish Ojha has expressed his anger over the way the Indian team management has handled the young batter. He feels that players cannot improve by sitting on the bench and believes Suryavanshi deserves a chance to show his talent on the field.
Ojha also suggested that the Indian team management was making decisions without giving enough thought to the player's development. He was really disappointed that Sooryavanshi had been left out of the playing XI for three matches in a row in the home series.
Manish Ojha was quoted as saying by Sports Now, "I feel that the management that is here right now is practising a kind of dictatorship where whatever comes to mind, they will do," Ojha said. "This current Indian team management feels that they make players by keeping them on the bench. Sitting on the bench, no player has ever been made, nor will they be.”
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's coach targets Gautam Gambhir over Sanju Samson's return
The Indian team management's decision to change the opening combination left many surprised. Ahead of the 2026 Asian Games, the seasoned wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson opened in the warm-up matches.
However, Samson was moved to No. 3, allowing Sooryavanshi to open alongside Abhishek Sharma during the Asian Games 2026 matches in Japan. But they once again changed the combinations for the West Indies series. With Sanju returning at the top, Vaibhav was left out of the playing XI, with the youngster carrying drinks for his teammates.
Ojha has questioned whether the team management has already decided against giving the teenager a chance in the series. Amid this, "Beizzati mat kara diyo": Prince Yadav reveals Abhishek Sharma’s message after bat gift.
He signed off by saying, “Either they have made up their mind that this kid will not be given a chance... keep him out and frustrate him so much. He is sitting outside and serving water.”
Will Vaibhav Sooryavanshi get game time before tough New Zealand tour?
The Men in Blue are currently leading the ongoing five-match T20I series 2-1 against the West Indies, with the fourth match scheduled to take place at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad on Wednesday, October 14.
With only two games remaining in the home series, it will be interesting to see whether Gambhir and the team management give Vaibhav crucial game time before the tough New Zealand tour.
