‘Terminator 6’, Vaibhav Suryavanshi got a new name, Yuvraj Singh said – this boy will go further than me and Abhishek Sharma

New Delhi. Yuvraj Singh has given a new and very unique name to Vaibhav Suryavanshi. The new name given to Vaibhav by former Team India all-rounder Yuvi is ‘Terminator 6’. Along with this, Yuvraj has expressed his desire to groom and mentor this young player in the same way as he did with Indian opener Abhishek Sharma. Yuvraj Singh believes that Vaibhav is extremely talented and he is on his way to becoming a great player in the future. Vaibhav recently made his debut for the senior Indian team in the T20 International series played against England. Vaibhav, who made headlines with his aggressive batting, had also broken a big record of Yuvraj Singh himself earlier this year.

In the final match of the tri-series played between India ‘A’ and Sri Lanka ‘A’, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi had created history by scoring the fastest half-century in List-A cricket in just 11 balls. Earlier this record was recorded in the name of Yuvraj Singh. While talking to Star Sports, Yuvraj Singh revealed the interesting reason behind this interesting name. He told that he considers himself a ‘Terminator’, but the coming generation is taking the game to a new level.

Yuvraj Singh said, ‘I always call myself Terminator. Now we have ‘Terminator 4’ i.e. Abhishek Sharma, who is four times better than me. And now after him has come ‘Terminator 6’, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who has gone even further in the game. I contributed in my time, Abhishek raised the bar, and now Vaibhav is setting new standards. This is the third stop of the same journey. It’s really amazing to see the game progressing like this.

Comparison with tennis greats
Yuvraj Singh compared this change coming in modern cricket with the modern superstars of the tennis world. He explained how the pace and style of the game changes with each generation. Yuvraj said, ‘When I watch Yannick Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz play, I understand how tennis is changing. I am seeing exactly the same change in the game of Abhishek and Vaibhav. I have spent a lot of time training Abhishek, and I would like to spend time with Vaibhav too. His future is very bright. He will become a great player in future, and I am confident that he will achieve his goal.

This conversation became more special when on Sunday, Yuvraj Singh, Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Abhishek Sharma came together to watch the Wimbledon Men’s Singles final (Yannick Sinner vs Alexander Zverev) at the All England Club. Vaibhav is very excited with this praise and nickname from his idol player. Talking about the influence of Yuvraj and his meeting with him, Vaibhav said that it was the most special moment of his life. Vaibhav said, ‘Yuvi Paaji is also my idol. Meeting him for the first time was a very special and memorable moment for me. I got a chance to spend time with him and he shared many important things with me regarding the game.

future strong trio
Cricket pundits believe that the guidance of Yuvraj Singh will make this new crop of Indian cricket more aggressive and mentally strong. Just as Abhishek Sharma has improved his batting under the supervision of Yuvraj, similarly Vaibhav Suryavanshi also seems all set to leave his indelible mark on world cricket in the form of ‘Terminator 6’. Sports lovers now hope that under the tutelage of Yuvraj, Vaibhav will prove to be the biggest match winner for the Indian team in the times to come.
