KOLKATA: Vaibhu Suryavanshi is no ordinary 15-year-old. He is completely different Rajasthan Royals It is sensational that the cricketing world is watching him with great enthusiasm. however, Kumar Sangakkarathe head coach of the Royals, wants this batting ability to be the same as any other 15-year-old’s.“I just want him to be a 15-year-old kid who goes out and bats the way he wants,” Sangakkara said here on Saturday. “He has to enjoy everything, whether it’s a 100 off 35 balls, a 50 off 15 or a first-ball duck.”
Suryavanshi had his first taste of failure this season in the last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, when he was dismissed on the first ball he faced. The boy smiled, perhaps a little angry with himself. “You’re allowed to score runs, you’re allowed to fail. That’s part and parcel of cricket,” was Sangakkara’s message to the youngster. “He should never lose the freedom with which he plays.”
