Vaibhav Sooryavanshi
The 15-year-old was part of India’s Asian Games gold-medal winning squad and played all the matches in Nagoya, though he could not make a significant impact with the bat.
The more time he spends in this environment with the quality players, the more time he trains at this standard, will only be great for his cricket,” Morkel said at the pre-match press conference. With him sharing that sort of dressing room and talking to guys, or just actually watching how the guys go through their processes and how they set up innings, will be key for him,” he said. “We all know the talent of Vaibhav. “And if he’s not getting that game time, he’s still on a bus, in the dugout, in the hotel with guys with a lot of experience.
With India set to begin their three-match T20I series against the West Indies on Tuesday, Morkel stressed that Sooryavanshi’s development is not dependent only on getting regular game time.
So I always challenge them, and for any young player, if he gets game time or if that game time is a little limited, it’s still our job to make sure that these guys learn, they grow, and they ask questions,” he said. Once we are up and running and we get the series going, we are all really looking forward to it,” Morkel said. NEW DELHI: India bowling coach Morne Morkel believes teenage sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi can benefit immensely from spending more time around experienced players, even if he does not get a game in the upcoming T20I series against the West Indies. “If you put guys in the right environment and they can ask the right questions and they can observe. “…the red flag or the problem might be, our guys are travelling back after the Asian Games. Some of the guys only arrived a couple of days ago, so jet lag, getting over the journey.
