Some surprising updates have emerged about teenage sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who is currently in Sri Lanka for the triangular ODI series with the India A team. The senior team in India is playing a 3-match ODI series with Afghanistan.
Amid the tournament, journalist Abhishek Tripathi has claimed on social media platforms that the sudden emergence of Vaibhav Suryavanshi has made many cricketers of Team India insecure.
The rise of Vaibhav Suryavanshi makes some people sad
During an online conversation, the journalist claims that he has some inputs that some players of the Indian cricket team are not happy with the early emergence of Vaibhav Suryavanshi. Tripathi claims that when he was discussing with a BCCI source, he came to know about a shocking thing. According to his claims, some cricketers advise the authorities not to act hastily on the 15-year-old player.
But why do other cricketers like Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s entry into the dressing room of the senior cricket team? After Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, Team India does not have any other superstar. Both Virat and Rohit are near retirement.
Head coach Gautam Gambhir also talks against superstar culture. He wants to build a team that does not have any superstars. Shreyas Iyer, Jasprit Bumrah, Sanju Samson, Abhishek Sharma and other regulars of the Indian national cricket team are extremely popular and clearly stars, but not superstars.

Vaibhav will be the main attraction in the team
Since there is no superstar in the T20I team, all players now have an equal opportunity to grab the attention. Vaibhav Suryavanshi is already enjoying all the limelight. Due to his exceptional batting skills and ability to score runs at a fast pace, he is now the superstar of Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League.
If he continues to play at this pace, it will only be a matter of time before he soon earns the superstar title as a Team India batsman. If Suryavanshi grabs everyone’s attention at just 15 years of age, then the rest of the team can go behind the scenes, away from the limelight.
IPL 2026 was an extraordinary season for Vaibhav Suryavanshi. As the youngest player in the franchise league, he claimed the Orange Cap for Rajasthan Royals by scoring 776 runs in 16 matches and as many innings at an impressive strike rate of 237.30 and a batting average of 48.50.
This batsman is struggling with his form in Sri Lanka
Due to amazing performances with consistency, the national team selectors led by Ajit Agarkar picked the Bihar-born player for the T20I squad for the upcoming tours of Ireland and England and the 2026 Asian Games in Japan.
If Vaibhav Suryavanshi makes his debut for India at the age of just 15, he can create history. Vaibhav can write history again by breaking the record of the great Sachin Tendulkar. Ahead of the UK tour, the batsman has been struggling with his form in Sri Lanka. So far, in the three matches of the triangular ODI series, he has scored 14, 44 and 21 runs respectively.
