There was talk of dropping Abhishek

Speaking to Aaj Tak, former Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar said, ‘Two new players Suryansh Shedge and Prince Yadav were given a chance in the second T20 match against Ireland. Prince bowled very well and took three wickets. He got a chance to play only one ball while batting, on which he also hit a six. Since a month ago I was saying that Vaibhav Suryavanshi is in great form. He should be played in two matches of Ireland. In one match he would feed Abhihaske Sharma and in the other he would drop him and feed him to Sanju Samson. Young players could have been tried in both these matches.

The team has no other option

Former Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar believes that now the team management has no option left but to give a chance to Vaibhav Suryavanshi. He says, ‘Now Vaibhav will have to play in the very first match against England. The simple thing is, keep out your out-of-form batsmen and give Vaibhav a chance. Vaibhav can also be fielded at number-3. You will have to give a chance to Vaibhav in the first T20 match against England itself.
