After a stunning T20I series against Zimbabwe, the teenage sensation will represent India at the Asian Games 2026 starting September 24.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi capped off the Zimbabwe series with an explosive 18-ball half-century, concluding his debut bilateral tour with 193 runs. The 15-year-old had a shaky start in England but rebounded emphatically, showcasing the form that made him a star in IPL 2026.

Sooryavanshi is primarily a T20 specialist, meaning a place in India’s ODI setup remains distant with Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Shubman Gill occupying the top order. His white-ball prowess, however, keeps him firmly in the selectors’ plans for the shortest format.

The next opportunity comes at the Asian Games 2026, starting September 24, where he has already been selected. India, defending champions, are seeded directly to the quarterfinals, though exact match dates are yet to be announced. All eyes will be on Sooryavanshi to replicate his heroics on that stage.
