The next generation of superstars is gearing up and awaiting the chance to display their talent at the highest level. 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi is the prime example of this, as the southpaw is touted as the next big thing in Indian cricket.
Suryavanshi rose to fame with his explosive batting for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2025 and backed it up with a scintillating display in India U19's recent tour to England.
Suryavanshi Trains With BCCI In Bengaluru
In the latest developments, Suryavanshi is working hard at the BCCI's centre of excellence in Bengaluru, where he is getting personalised training.
A report from Mykhel stated that Suryavanshi landed in India on August 10 and headed straight to the BCCI's Centre of Excellence. Notably, a customised schedule focusing on both technical drills and match-specific scenarios has been set up exclusively for him.
Meanwhile, His childhood coach Manish Ojha, who has seen Vaibhav's rise closely, remarked that the training is for something bigger than Australia tour.
"BCCI is looking ahead. The senior players are gradually retiring, and to fill that vacuum, the next batch of youngsters must be fully ready. This training for Vaibhav is part of that process. We pick boys one by one and prepare them accordingly for the demands of international cricket," Ojha explained.
Notably, Suryavanshi will next be in action for India U19's home tour against Australia A starting on September 16.
