Got High Hopes From Sooryavanshi, I Think He Just Has Picked Himself Really, Says Agarkar
Secretary Devajit Saikia: India's chief selector Ajit Agarkar said he had high hopes for teenage batter Vaibhav Sooryavanshi after giving him a maiden T20I call-up to tours of Ireland, England, and the Asian Games, adding the youngster had ‘picked himself’ into the squad with his explosive IPL 2026 performances.
Sooryavanshi had a stellar IPL 2026 for the Rajasthan Royals and was the leading run-getter in the competition with 776 runs, including a hundred and five half-centuries. He also bagged the most valuable player and emerging player of the competition awards in the competition.
“What do you say, we've seen what he can do. You saw, even towards those playoffs, almost single‑handedly carried the Rajasthan Royals. For a young kid, I don't need to talk about how well he's batting or how well he's playing. It's not just this season. He's obviously made a great start last season.
