He’s just exceptional talent: Oman players in shock of Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s batting prowess

Seeing his sensational form with the bat for the Indian side, the Oman players were left in shock. Two of the player from the Oman side, namely Aryan Bisht and Samay Shrivastava were left surprised as they questioned at the age of 14, how can a player smash monstrous sixes. “We’ve only seen Vaibhav Suryavanshi on TV, and now we’ll be playing against him,” said Aryan Bisht in an interview with TimesofIndia.com.

Bring out his curiosity, Aryan further added, “When you’re 14 and you’re able to hit the ball that far, that’s just exceptional talent. It’s something not everybody can do — definitely something I couldn’t do at that age. 14 saal ke ho, kaise maarte ho ye chakke? [At 14, how are you smashing those sixes?] He’s really talented and very good, so I’m really looking forward to playing against him.” Not only this, Samay Shrivastava, who played for MP before moving to Oman, said, “It’s a great opportunity to meet him. I just want to know his mindset about cricket.”

He further exclaimed, “He’s only 14 and he’s already doing so well for his cricket and for India. The way he hits those big sixes is extraordinary. I really want to meet him and talk to him.”
