3 big strengths of Vaibhav Suryavanshi, coach told
IPL is the world’s biggest T20 league, in which many strong players play. Famous bowlers like Bumrah-Siraj-Boult spit fire with their balls here. What ability does 13 year old Vaibhav Suryavanshi have to face those bowlers? On this, his coach Manish Ojha told TV9 Hindi that Vaibhav has three things, which are his biggest strengths. He will become their shield against the stormy bowlers in IPL. Thanks to that he will not only be able to play them but will also dominate.
While talking to TV9 Hindi, Manish Ojha told that the first strength of Vaibhav Suryavanshi is that he can instantly adapt to any condition and environment. He plays according to the mood of the pitch. Meaning the bowlers are left with less options to trouble him.
Vaibhav’s second strength is his confidence. Whatever they have to do, they do it with full confidence. Giving an example of this, the coach said that many times during matches we tell them that you can also take single-double. On this he says, Sir, why should I take a single-double on a ball on which I can hit a six?
The coach said that Vaibhav’s third strength is his being a match winner. The day he plays, he is the player who returns after winning the match.
What did the captain under whom Vaibhav made his debut say?
Ashutosh Aman, who was the captain of Bihar team, told TV9 Hindi about his first meeting with Vaibhav Suryavanshi. He said that when I saw him for the first time, I was hesitant because of his young age. The question in my mind was whether he would be able to play? But when I saw him playing in the nets, I felt that there was something different about that player. Then we gave him a chance to make his Ranji debut.
The former captain of Bihar has described Vaibhav’s batting style as aggressive. He has expressed hope that Vaibhav Suryavanshi will be successful in attracting everyone’s attention in IPL. Meaning, the competition between small batsmen and master bowlers can be fierce.
