No Pressure on Vaibhav Suryavanshi Yet : Anil Kumble

Former Team India captain Anil Kumble shared interesting views on the performance of young sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who is impressing everyone with his explosive batting in the Indian Premier League 2026 season. Kumble praised the youngster’s fearless approach against top bowler Jasprit Bumrah but advised that putting pressure on him to join the national team too soon would not be the right move.

He highlighted that Vaibhav’s strike rate and confidence at just 15 years of age show great promise for the future. Kumble emphasized that talented players need time to grow and develop, expressing confidence that selectors will definitely notice him if he continues performing consistently in the coming years.
