Sooryavanshi Was Always Meant To Debut, India Building For Next T20 World Cup: Sitanshu Kotak
T20 World Cup: India batting coach Sitanshu Kotak has insisted that teenage sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi was always part of the team's plans and did not require any special preparation before becoming India's youngest international cricketer, while stressing that the management's larger focus remains on building a squad capable of defending the T20 World Cup in two years.
Speaking on the night before the third T20I against England in Nottingham, Kotak mentioned that the 15-year-old opener, who made his debut in the second T20I at 15 years and 99 days, was selected for his fearless style of play.
"He was set to debut from the moment he joined the team; it’s not like he was only ready for his debut in the last match," Kotak told reporters. "For us, it was all about his game, his instincts, and how he plays. The way he has played to get here, he should keep playing that way.
