Vaibhav Suryavanshi and his U-19 teammates were spotted at Edgbaston, cheering for Team India on Day 2 of the second Test of the ongoing five-match Test series.
The India U-19 team is also in England. They are set to play five Youth ODIs, followed by two Youth Tests. The India U-19 side is currently leading the ODI series 2-1.
Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW!On Wednesday, Vaibhav Suryavanshi hit the third-fastest half-century in India U-19s history, off an astonishing 20 balls, to set up victory over England in their third one-day match in Northampton and go 2-1 up in the five-match series.
So far, he has scored 48 (19), 45 (34), and now 86 (31) in the series, and is currently the leading run-scorer for India.
Suryavanshi displayed the extraordinary range of strokes that had catapulted him to fame earlier this year when he smashed the second-fastest century in IPL history. In pursuit of a target of 269, he unleashed six boundaries and nine towering sixes, racing to a breathtaking 86 off just 31 balls and dispatching England’s bowlers to every part of the ground.
His blistering scoring pace meant that by the time he departed, India had rocketed to 111 for two in only eight overs. Vihaan Malhotra complemented the assault with a stylish 46 from 34 deliveries, putting India firmly in control of the chase.
However, Malhotra’s dismissal triggered a brief stumble, with three wickets falling for just 30 runs over the next six overs. It took a calm, assured unbroken stand of 75 between Kanishk Chouhan (43) and R.S. Ambrish (31) across 11.1 overs to seal the win comfortably, with 33 balls remaining.
