We have a ‘secret plan’ ready for Vaibhav Suryavanshi… Sam Curran warns before the second T20 match

New Delhi. Before the second T20 match between India and England in Manchester, English all-rounder Sam Curran has given a big statement about Indian young batting sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi. Sam Curran says that 15-year-old Vaibhav is currently in the best form of his life, but the host team (England) has prepared special strategies and plans against this young player for the match to be held at Old Trafford. Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who has emerged as one of the brightest stars of Indian cricket with his brilliant performance in the recent season of IPL, can make his T20 debut on Saturday. The first match of the series played at Chester-le-Street was washed out due to rain, in which India scored 189 runs for 7 wickets. Despite no result of the match, the curiosity and discussion about this 15 year old player is continuously increasing in the cricket circles.

While talking to journalists on the eve of the match, Sam Curran praised the talent of Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, but also warned that the conditions in England could be completely different and challenging for this young player from India. Karan said, ‘I think the conditions in England will present a different challenge for Vaibhav. The pitches here are very different and much slower than those in India. As a bowler we definitely have our plans against him. However, I am not saying that our plans will prove to be completely correct, because he is showing an incredible game at the moment. He is still very young and is just enjoying his game.

Karan told- what will be the biggest challenge
Left-arm fast bowler and all-rounder Sam Curran has a long experience of IPL. He has seen the pressure surrounding Indian cricket and the madness of the fans very closely. Karan believes that more than scoring runs, the toughest test for Vaibhav will be to handle the pressure and limelight that comes with being an Indian cricketer. Karan said, ‘I have good experience of playing in India, but I believe that being an Indian cricketer in India is a completely different level. The biggest challenge for Vaibhav will be how he handles all this attention, media pressure and expectations of millions of fans at such a young age.

Advice for young players to be patient
This star player of England has appealed to everyone to be patient amidst the atmosphere created around Vaibhav. He said that it is not right to put excessive pressure on a player so soon. Karan further said, ‘He has played only one or two IPL seasons and so soon he has become a part of the Indian team. I am confident that he will have good people around him who will guide him in this journey. But you never know a player completely until he makes his international debut and you see him play. Like all other cricketers, I am sure there will be ups and downs in his career too.

Indian team faces selection headache
The Indian team management had expressed confidence in its experienced top order in the first match of the series and did not show haste in including Vaibhav Suryavanshi in the playing eleven. But considering the washout of the first match and the lack of consistency in the form of wicketkeeper-batsman Sanju Samson, the demand for changes in the team has intensified.

Cricket pundits and fans believe that Team India should give a chance to a fearless batsman like Vaibhav in Old Trafford, Manchester. In such a situation, before the second T20 match, a big ‘selection headache’ has arisen in front of the Indian captain and coach regarding the inclusion of Vaibhav in the team. Now it will be interesting to see whether this young sensation gets a chance to debut in the blue jersey at Old Trafford or he will have to wait a little longer for his turn.
