Former Indian Cricketer Sunil Gavaskar backed the ongoing IPL season’s Orange Cap holder, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, for a T20I debut in the upcoming series against England.
“In T20 cricket, he is ready. I hope that he is selected for the T20 squad in England. After this performance, if you don’t give him a spot now, when will you give it to him?” said the legend while speaking on Sports Tak.
As far as him being young is concerned, Gavaskar gave a reality check to those critics, reminding them that there are players that are much older than him who can only dream of playing the way he does.
“Don’t look at the age because the way he is hitting fours and sixes against players who are 15 years older than him, and even against those who have international cricket experience, he is sending the ball into the stands,” he said.
“So don’t look at his age. Just look at the way he is playing. The style in which he is playing. There is no fear at all. No fear at all,” he added.
