New Delhi: Whenever the name of 15 year old young sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi comes up in red ball cricket, only the picture of long sixes coming out of his bat comes to mind. But in this new season of Duleep Trophy, when Ishan Kishan, who is commanding the East Zone, felt that the match might slip away, then he played a card which was no less than a surprise even for him. By giving two big blows in just four balls, Vaibhav proved that he is not only an aggressive batsman but can also play the role of a useful wicket-taker when needed.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi's spin blows the senses

In this quarter-final match played between East Zone and North East Zone, when the opposing batsmen were trying to play steady, then captain Ishaan handed the ball to Vaibhav.
With his tight left-arm spin, Vaibhav took two key wickets for 11 runs in just three overs and led his team to a spectacular victory.

Captain's risk turned into a masterstroke

After the match was over, when Vaibhav's deadly bowling started being discussed in the corridors of Indian domestic cricket, this young player made a very interesting and candid revelation. In the video of the conversation shared by BCCI, Vaibhav said that when wickets of a team are not falling, part-time bowlers are often tried.

According to Vaibhav, Ishaan Bhaiya felt that giving him bowling could be a risky move. They were thinking that maybe I had come just to take overs, but they had no idea that I had the skill to take wickets.

After disappointment with the bat, left an impression with the ball

The journey with the bat was not very pleasant for Vaibhav, who entered this match as the vice-captain of East Zone. In the first innings, he faced only 6 balls and returned to the pavilion after scoring only 8 runs. However, he did not let this failure affect his overall impression. In the second innings, when North East Zone was facing follow-on, Vaibhav forced Kishan Lyngdoh to play a shot in the air on the second ball of the 28th over and then after three balls, Imliwati Lemtur was caught straight by wicketkeeper Ishan Kishan. His deadly spell took North East Zone's score from 75 for 5 wickets to 79 for 7 wickets. Earlier, East Zone had scored a huge score of 467 runs in the first innings with the help of Shahbaz Ahmed's 167 runs and Sudeep Kumar Gharami's 146 runs, in response to which the North East Zone team was limited to 111 runs in the first innings and 146 runs in the second innings.

Now challenge from Central Zone in semi-finals

With this one-sided and explosive win by one innings and 210 runs, the East Zone team led by Ishan Kishan has secured its ticket to the semi-finals. Now the real test of this young star will be on the ground of Bengaluru, where East Zone is going to clash with the strong team of Central Zone. Fans are now desperate to see whether Vaibhav is able to recreate the magic of his ball spin along with the resonance of his bat.
