Vaibhav Suryavanshi scored 56 in the second innings of the first Youth Test.
Rajasthan Royals youngster Vaibhav Suryavanshi is making a strong habit of being in the headlines frequently. The left-handed destructive batter was all over the internet for his explosive knocks in the Under-19 Youth ODIs against England. The 14-year-old is making a mark in the Youth Test series as well. Except, this time, it is with the ball in hand. Suryavanshi became the youngest Indian to take a wicket in a Youth Test match. He bowled 13 overs and bagged two important wickets, including that of English skipper Hamza Shaikh. Suryavanshi’s left-arm orthodox bowling style has a flair to it and is a very clean and simple bowling action.
After their exploits in the 50-over format, the Indians were high on confidence. Captain Ayush Mhatre won the toss in the first Youth Test and chose to bat first. India registered a mammoth 540 after a brilliant century from the captain himself. Vihaan Malhotra, Abhigyan Kundu, Rahul Kumar, and RS Ambrish all contributed with 50+ scores. However, Suryavanshi was silenced in the first innings and could just manage 14. But with that behind him, he found a way to topple the hosts with the ball.
The Rajasthan Royals prodigy also managed to play a sturdy knock of 56 in the second innings. The innings comprised nine boundaries and a six. After scoring a valiant century in the fourth Youth ODI of the series, Suryavanshi has turned up for the longest format of the game too.
