3 fours in 1 over and OUT: Vaibhav Suryavanshi fails to fire in 1st Youth Test vs England
Vaibhav Suryavanshi NEW DELHI: He arrived with intent, played a few crisp strokes, found the boundary rope early, and was then sent back — that summed up Vaibhav Suryavanshi's outing in the opening match of the Youth Test series against England Under-19s. Coming off a stellar run in the Youth ODIs, the young batter showed flashes of his talent but couldn't turn his promising start into a meaningful score. Walking in with confidence, the right-hander immediately made his presence felt, cracking three boundaries in the very first over — all off England pacer James Minto — briefly putting the hosts under pressure.

But just as he looked to settle, England's Alex Green delivered the breakthrough. Vaibhav was dismissed for 14 off 13 balls — a short but eventful innings marked by three boundaries and a strike rate of 107.69.
