Virat Kohli signs Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s cap, pens sweet message

Bhuvaneshwar admitted his team could not implement some of the plans. “But that is part and parcel of T20 cricket,” he said. “So we are not worried much.”

RCB was a spinner short because Venkatesh was brought in as the Impact Player.

“We had only one left-arm spinner, as we used an Impact Player instead of Suyash,” he said. “We didn’t have a leg-spinner or an off-break bowler, and for a left-arm bowler to face a left-arm batter, it is easier,” added Bhuvaneshwar.

His sensational innings took the game away from the visiting side and helped Rajasthan Royals maintain its all-win record this season.“The way he is hitting, it is not slogging, and he is playing proper cricket shots,” Bhuvneshwar said. “For a 15-year-old, he is too mature. He deserves all the credit for the way he is batting.The seamer said RCB’s score (201 for eight) was alright. “Though we lost wickets in the PowerPlay, our run-rate was adequate for a T20 game,” he said. “Because of the way Rajat Patidar and Venkatesh Iyer batted, we were able to get a par score. But Survyanshi took the game away from us in the PowerPlay. We still took the match into the 19th over, though it was a tough game overall for us. We fought well, though.”ALSO READ | Virat Kohli signs Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s cap, pens sweet messageBhuvaneshwar admitted his team could not implement some of the plans. “But that is part and parcel of T20 cricket,” he said. “So we are not worried much.”RCB was a spinner short because Venkatesh was brought in as the Impact Player.“We had only one left-arm spinner, as we used an Impact Player instead of Suyash,” he said. “We didn’t have a leg-spinner or an off-break bowler, and for a left-arm bowler to face a left-arm batter, it is easier,” added Bhuvaneshwar.Published on Apr 11, 2026 #15yearold #mature #Bhuvneshwar #Kumar #Vaibhav #Suryavanshi

Suryavanshi vs Bumrah — Much-awaited duel offers expected fireworks

Bond said it was fun to watch Suryavanshi’s success. “The boys love it, seeing him around the group, but also watching the way he is scoring. It is something special because it is something I have never seen. I think that is what people get so excited about. They just haven’t seen anything like that before.”

The coach was also happy with his own department. “It is not only just the fast-bowling group, but the bowling group in general and the team have played really well. There is a quiet confidence about the way we are going about things.”

So it is only natural for Rajasthan Royals’ fast-bowling coach to reflect on the way Vaibhav Suryavanshi has taken the cricketing world by storm.The former New Zealand pacer, one of the fastest of all time, is particularly impressed by the freedom with which the teenager bats and his maturity. “It hasn’t just been reckless hitting,” Bond said. “He has seen out the good balls, picked the balls to hit.”He said there was clear growth in Suryavanshi’s game. “And there is growth with a little bit of stubble,” Bond smiled. “He is obviously looking a little bit older than he did last year. I would never have those expectations of him at such a young age. But the way he has managed so much cricket — churning out runs, bringing energy and wanting to come to training — it is remarkable.”ALSO READ | Suryavanshi vs Bumrah — Much-awaited duel offers expected fireworksBond said it was fun to watch Suryavanshi’s success. “The boys love it, seeing him around the group, but also watching the way he is scoring.
