Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s debut match for Team India ended on a disappointing note as the 15-year-old batsman was out after scoring only 14 runs off 10 balls. The left-handed batsman misjudged the ball from Will Jacques and was stumped. Experienced keeper Jos Buttler made no mistake in uprooting the stump as soon as he saw the opportunity.
As soon as the team management announced Vaibhav Suryavanshi in the playing eleven for today’s match in Manchester, the eyes of cricket fans with hearts full of expectations were glued to the screen as they were expecting another ferocious innings from the young sensation. As soon as he was out, fans expressed their feelings through their social posts on social media platforms.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s performance in his first match for India was disappointing
Vaibhav Suryavanshi made his debut in place of Sanju Samson, who was not in form since the beginning of the UK tour. There was a lot of hype surrounding the emerging batsman before the match; This further increased as he walked into the middle to open the innings with the other opener, Abhishek Sharma.
After winning the toss, Indian captain Shreyas Iyer decided to bat first. The pitch at the Old Trafford cricket ground has a lot to offer to fast bowlers, so the home team bowlers enjoy bowling on a fresh pitch with the new ball in hand. The fast bowlers got bounce and extra pace from the first over of the innings.
It was not his day. The batsman was out after scoring only 14 runs. The fourteen runs he claimed were through a few sixes and two singles.
Harry Brook used his bowlers well to get the first success in the India vs England second T20 match.
Credit for this also goes to England captain Harry Brook, as he suddenly replaced the fast bowling attack with spinner Will Jacks. The batsman was deceived by the inclusion of the spinner.
Moving forward quickly, Jack pitched the ball flat outside offside, luring the batsman into taking a longer step. This plan worked well for the spinner and the England cricket team. Vaibhav again went to catch the bowler and made a costly mistake on the fifth ball of the fifth over of the first innings. The umpire went up to check before raising his finger.
Here are some notable reactions on ‘X’ to Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s dismissal:

Vaibhav Suryavanshi came out in the colors of India as if he was the owner of the place. No fear, no hesitation, just pure confidence. At the age of 15, he looked completely at home on the international stage. This is the mindset of someone destined for big things. 🇮🇳🔥 pic.twitter.com/3SDqCuodxd

The unnecessary publicity around Vaibhav Suryavanshi put more pressure on him. He is just 15 years old. Let him enjoy his cricket, grow at his own pace and give him time. pic.twitter.com/OUahOuOFzi
