New Delhi: The stormy start that fans were expecting from Team India’s young batsman Vaibhav Suryavanshi during the England tour has not been seen yet. Even in the fourth T20, he could not play a big innings and was once again out cheaply. After remaining silent in two consecutive matches, debate has now erupted regarding his batting. Should he get a chance in the 5th T20 match also? Such questions have also started arising in people’s minds!

Good start, same end  

Before the series started, all eyes were on Vaibhav. Due to his explosive batting in domestic cricket and junior level, he "next big name" Was being said. But in international cricket, England’s bowlers have caught his weakness. In the fourth T20 held in Bristol, Vaibhav hit 2-3 aggressive shots as soon as he came. Felt like there would be a long inning today. But again same mistake.

He could not stand the short ball and extra bounce and quickly returned to the pavilion. The team expected him to provide momentum in the initial overs, but he could not take it forward. Result – India again suffered a blow in the top order. In this match, he faced 10 balls and scored 15 runs. During this, one six was definitely seen from his bat, but then his wicket disappointed everyone.

England caught technical weakness!   

English fast bowlers have made a clear plan for Vaibhav. Constant bouncers and balls at the back. Young batsmen are struggling with this bounce and pace. In cricket, just hitting big shots is not enough. It is also important to adapt yourself according to the situation. Vaibhav is not able to live up to that criterion right now. Despite getting continuous opportunities, not getting big innings is also a matter for the team management to think about.

Is this just the beginning?   

However, many experts believe that it is normal to go through failure at such a young age. There is no dearth of talent in Vaibhav. The only problem is experience and patience. If he learns to handle the initial pressure and take the innings forward, he can become an important part of Team India’s middle order in the future. Right now he has to work on his shot selection and temperament.

Next match last chance?  

The fifth and last T20 of the series is now a chance for Vaibhav to prove himself. If he plays a big innings in this match, he will answer the criticism with the bat. But if the performance continues like this then questions are sure to be raised about his place in the team. At present, the Indian team needs improvement in every department after the defeat in Bristol. And that improvement will have to start by taking responsibility of young players like Vaibhav. This series against England is a learning opportunity for Vaibhav. Now it remains to be seen whether he is able to convert this learning into results in the next match or not.
