Sunil Gavaskar expressed surprise at 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s exclusion from the Ireland T20Is, believing he should have debuted before tougher England assignments. Despite the omission, Gavaskar anticipates Sooryavanshi’s eventual call-up, citing his record-breaking domestic feats. Assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate, however, urged patience, emphasising faith in established players while acknowledging the youngster’s readiness.
