Fans Mock Vaibhav Sooryavanshi After Flop Debut in England
The 15-year-old opener managed only 14 runs before being stumped by Jos Buttler off part-timer Will Jacks.
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's much-anticipated international debut for India ended in disappointment as he fell for just 14 off 10 balls in the second T20I against England. The young opener, who replaced Sanju Samson, started promisingly with two sixes off Jofra Archer and a quick 50-run stand with Abhishek Sharma. However, his innings came to a halt inside the powerplay when he was stumped by Jos Buttler off part-time spinner Will Jacks.
Social media erupted with criticism, with many fans accusing the youngster of thriving only on flat IPL pitches. Some labeled him an "age fraud" and questioned the decision to drop a World Cup winner for an unproven talent. Despite the backlash, Sooryavanshi's debut remains historic as the youngest Indian to play T20I cricket.
