‘Keep your head on your shoulders’: Yuvraj Singh warns Vaibhav Suryavanshi | Cricket News –

New Delhi: Young Indian batsman Vaibhav Suryavanshi is already turning heads in the cricket world. Ahead of the 2026 IPL season, the Rajasthan Royals star, who idolises Brian Lara and Yuvraj Singh, is aiming to make an impact. Having impressed in the 2026 ICC Under-19 World Cup and breaking records in the Indian Premier League when he was just 14 last season, he is now 15 and is considered a prodigy with immense potential.

When asked if Vaibhav could play for India soon, Yuvraj, speaking on Sports Tak Podcast, said: “IPL cricket has changed everything… As far as Vaibhav is concerned, I think 90% of people already know that he will play for India. The question is not if he will play for India, but when… But overall, I think he will play for India.”

It’s just a matter of when.” He also highlighted the importance of staying grounded: “100%. I think he’s an amazing talent. But it’s very important to keep your head on your shoulders, it matters a lot.”Yuvraj Singh was impressed by his playing, adding, “The most amazing thing about Vaibhav is his bat speed. His bat speed is unbelievably fast – honestly, even I didn’t have that kind of speed. I have seen very few players with such fast hands… What caught my attention was the way he hit sixes from the off-side, even against good deliveries, which showed real quality.”

Yuvraj also added that Vaibhav’s power is all over the earth, not limited to one area, and with more experience, he will only get better.“When I was selected, my only aim was to give the team a good start. I wanted to play my game in the Powerplay, and if I got a good start, I wanted to go on and play for a long time without giving away my wicket. I knew that if I played my shots, the game scenario would change,” Sooryavanshi recently told JioStar.With his record-breaking debut and courage, Vaibhav Suryavanshi is widely expected to shine at the international level soon.
