Discussion intensifies about Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s Team India debut, veteran warns BCCI not to distribute India caps like sheep.
News India Live, Digital Desk: Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, the 15-year-old young sensation who created havoc with his bat in IPL 2026, has become the most talked about name of Indian cricket at the moment. While on one hand fans and many former cricketers are advocating his immediate inclusion in Team India, on the other hand a big controversy has arisen. Cricket experts have advised BCCI to introspect and said that ‘India Cap’ should not be given so easily. ‘Big difference between IPL performance and international cricket’ Vaibhav Suryavanshi, playing for Rajasthan Royals, has scored 246 runs so far this season and he is also leaving behind the giants in terms of scoring boundaries. But, amidst his success, a group of former cricketers are calling it ‘hasty’. Experts argue that the success of IPL is not a guarantee that the player will be able to withstand the pressure and different conditions at the international level. He believes that opening the door to the national team only on the basis of a good IPL season can lower the dignity of the ‘India Cap’. BCCI is advised to introspect. It is being discussed in the cricket circles that in recent years, many players have been given a chance to debut soon on the basis of IPL performance, but many of them could not last long. Veterans say that BCCI should create a system where the player has to first prove himself in domestic cricket (Ranji, Vijay Hazare). Vaibhav Suryavanshi is only 15 years old, so experts believe that he should be given time to mature mentally and physically. Will Vaibhav Suryavanshi break the record? Even though the debate is going on among the experts, but Vaibhav’s statistics are testifying to his ability. He has hit 20 sixes and 24 fours so far this season. His fearless style of batting has caught the attention of the selectors. If he gets a chance soon, he will become one of the youngest players to debut for India. Now the ball is in the court of BCCI selection committee whether they give priority to experience or this young ‘Umang’.
