Recently, Vaibhav scored 190 runs in Vijay Hazare Trophy by scoring a century in just 36 balls, after which now PM Modi has also mentioned his talent in his speech.

PM Modi saluted the talent

PM Modi said that even the poorest child can now reach the top at an early age. There are unlimited opportunities for him now. He said, ‘Today such an eco-system has been created in the country, where players are selected not on the basis of coach, not on the basis of introduction but on the basis of talent. Now talent is given importance. Earlier, all the irregularities that used to happen in the sports department, team selection and sports infrastructure in the name of sports have stopped today. Today, even a child from the poorest of the poor families can reach the top at an early age. Just yesterday you must have seen, 15-20 year old youngsters in the playground, some scored a century in 32 balls and some scored a century in 35-40 balls.
