Following his exploits in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 for Rajasthan Royals, young batting sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi has been continuing to impress. He is currently in brilliant form for India U-19 team while playing against England.
In response, former Indian head coach Ravi Shastri has heaped praise on the 14-year-old youngster, claiming that he could soon be seen featuring for India in the senior national team, foreseeing his continuous rise in the game.
"He will play First-Class cricket, but that’s what the IPL does. It gives you that platform. The whole country sees you. And you catch the imagination of everyone. It will fast-track him if he goes and plays First-Class cricket, goes and gets a couple of hundreds in his first couple of seasons," said Shastri during a recent interaction.

"He (Suryavanshi) has already caught the eyes; already made it to the Under-19 team at the age of 14. Smacking it everywhere. And it’s tours like this to England, with this exposure. He can only improve," he added.
Notably, Suryavanshi's latest heroics unfolded in the Youth ODI against England U-19, where he smashed a stunning 143-run knock off just 78 balls.
