game desk When 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi scored 175 runs in 80 balls against England on the Harare ground, the entire cricket world was stunned. Such a storm is rarely seen in a big match like the final of the Under-19 World Cup. It was not just a brilliant innings, but a glimpse of the future of Indian cricket.

This innings of Vaibhav with 15 sixes, fearless shots and complete control over the match proved that talent knows no age. From social media to cricket pundits, everyone was seen saying “This boy will soon be seen in Team India.” But this is where an important turn comes in the story.

Actually, even if it wants to, the Board of Control for Cricket in India cannot give Vaibhav a chance in the senior team at present. The reason is the minimum age rule of the International Cricket Council. According to ICC rules, any player has to complete a certain age to play international senior cricket. Vaibhav is below that standard right now.

These rules have been made so that there is not excessive pressure on young players and their physical and mental development can take place in a balanced manner. History is witness to the fact that haste can sometimes harm one’s career.

However, the path to glory is not closed. Platforms like domestic cricket, India A, and IPL are ready for them. By performing there they can improve themselves further. The coming few years will strengthen the foundation of his career.

His historic innings in the ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup 2026 will be remembered in the times to come. This is the same innings which made a teenager a national hope overnight.

For cricket lovers in the Hindi belt, Vaibhav Suryavanshi is no longer just a player but a dream, a dream which shows that big stars can emerge even from small towns and at a young age. If everything continues to move in the right direction, then the day is not far when this same name will be seen scoring runs for the country in the jersey of Team India.

Currently, the wait is for a mature, strong and even more dangerous Vaibhav Suryavanshi to enter the international arena.
