Sooryavanshi, A Special Talent… We Are Putting Too Much Pressure On Him: Kapil Dev
India T20I: Former India captain Kapil Dev has described teenage batting sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi as a "special talent," but cautioned against burdening the youngster with excessive pressure so early in his career.
At 15 years and 71 days, the left-handed opener earned his maiden call-up to the India T20I squad for the upcoming tours of Ireland and England and the Asian Games 2026. He became the youngest player to be picked, breaking Sachin Tendulkar’s 36-year-old record.
"I think he is a special talent, but he has to go a long way. There is no doubt that at such a young age, the way he has performed in club cricket shows his ability. He just needs to focus on himself because he has a long journey ahead. At the moment, I think we are putting too much pressure on him," Kapil Dev told IANS.
