Sanjiv Goenka- Vaibhav Sooryavanshi: There is no doubt that LSG owner Sanjeev Goenka has been impressed by Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s batting. This was also revealed when he wrote praise for Vaibhav on his X handle after his selection in India A and also on the evening of 19th May, when Vaibhav Suryavanshi became the hero of Rajasthan Royals’ victory against LSG. Both Sanjeev Goenka and his wife came to meet Vaibhav Suryavanshi. He not only met the 15 year old promising cricketer but also had a conversation with him. Former Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has commented on the same conversation in a light-hearted manner during the commentary.
