U19 Asia Cup 2025: It is said that trust is the biggest thing. India’s Under 19 team captain Ayush Mhatre has such faith in his friend, his opening partner – Vaibhav Suryavanshi, that he does not hesitate in saying that he will win the match. A statement of Ayush Mhatre before the match against Pakistan has come out, in which he is praising the strength and ability of Vaibhav Suryavanshi. And perhaps in his words he is also giving a message to the Pakistan Under-19 team that this time Suryavanshi will not waver.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi made his debut against PAK U19
This will be the second time in the Under 19 Asia Cup that Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Pakistan team will be seen face to face. The first encounter between them took place in the last Under 19 Asia Cup, where Vaibhav Suryavanshi could score only 1 run after facing 8 balls. Vaibhav Suryavanshi also made his debut in Under 19 ODI in the same match.
Vaibhav has changed a lot since his debut
But, this time the Vaibhav Suryavanshi who will be in front of Pakistan will not be a debutant but a seasoned player. A batsman whose hunger for centuries is not slowing down this year. Vaibhav has so far scored 3 centuries only for the Under 19 ODI team. Apart from this, he has scored centuries for India A in IPL, Under 19 Test and Rising Stars Asia Cup.
When Vaibhav plays, the team wins unilaterally- Ayush
Now, if a player has such a report card, his captain will definitely be full of confidence about him. Ayush Mhatre gave a statement about Vaibhav Suryavanshi with the same confidence that, there is no need to tell what kind of player Vaibhav is? When he plays, the team wins unilaterally.
Vaibhav will win the match, what is the reason for the captain’s confidence?
He further said that Vaibhav will make us win the match. He also gave a big reason behind saying this. He said that Vaibhav is in great form right now, which is a good thing for the team. He has been doing well continuously. We have been playing together and watching him for the last one year. We are confident that Vaibhav Suryavanshi will do well and the team will also do well.
Ready to compete against Pakistan
The latest example of Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s ability to give Ayush Mhatre a one-sided victory is the last match itself, in which he single-handedly scored 171 runs for the Indian team who came to bat first. After that match, Ayush Mhatre had learned about Vaibhav’s preparations for the match against Pakistan, on which he had said that his target is not only to do well in Pakistan but in the entire tournament.
