He should make that number 3 his place, “Kamalpreet told Timesofindia.com.Then one day before the big tour, VVS laxmanThe head of cricket at the Center of Excellence (COE) also shared some valuable suggestions with the youth. He scored 233 runs in five young ODIs and played an important role in India’s success in two youth tests, with 277 runs and three important wickets with his off-spin.

He was away from telling what VVS Laxman told him but said that the little input changed his game. He told Timesofindia.com, “He just wanted me to enjoy my game.“This was an excellent and thrilling experience for me. It was the first time I went to England. I had heard a lot about the status of English playing. Seam movement, weather, and it tests the technology of subcontinent batsmen. There were veins, but I enjoyed the way I batted in England. I made some technical adjustments and by the end of the tour, I became a better batsman, “he said.His performance has been rewarded with Vice-Capanesey for the Australia Tour, where India U-19 Side will play three ODIs and two multi-day matches starting from September 21.By struggling with seam and swing, he is getting ready for Australia’s bouncy tracks.“For the last one month, he has been training 12 hours a day. I am training him on a wet cement track, sometimes with plastic balls, sometimes with tennis balls. There are some scratches, but he has improved a lot,” Sandhu said.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s effectFor this current India U-19 setup, Vihaan suggests that they do not need to see anywhere else for inspiration. They are sharing a dressing room with the superstar, who burnt IPL 2025 with his power-pack batting. Among the opponents, two England priests were – Rocky Flintoff and Archie von – the son of veteran England cricketers Andrew Flintoff and Michael vonRespectively.Malhotra said with a laugh, “Vaibhav and focusing on Ayush helped me because I went under the radar.”“They knew about Matre and Vaibhav. They wanted to get them out quickly. All bowlers wanted to get the wickets of IPL players.”Except for her two centuries – one in Youth Test, the other in Youth OD – and seeing the special memory of Shubman Gill in Edgbaston, the most pleasant memory of the England Tour was teasing Vaibhav Suryavanshi, when her fans came to meet in one match.“Vaibhav ke fans Aaye Hue the.

“In the fourth one day, I scored 209 runs for the second wicket with Vaibhav. We both scored for centuries but they smoked 10 sixes and I had the best seat in the house. His bat swing is something we are in fear, “he said. Vihaan scored 129 runs from 121 balls, while Suryavanshi scored 143 runs in 78 balls, 13 fours and 10 sixes.Malhotra takes inspiration from Suryavanshi and Matre, but believes that their presence has only increased their hunger.“Cricketing field always teaches you new things. For example, in my case, there are two complete superstars in my team. There are competition, and in future, people will compare us with them too but it is good for us. When Vaibhav was hitting sixes for fun in the IPL, it pumped me to work hard, “he said.Malhotra does not have a high deal. For now, he is getting ready for a tour of Australia, followed by the U-19 World Cup to be held in Namibia and Zimbabwe next year. But his eyes are ready to play domestic cricket.“I really want to break into the Punjab Ranji Trophy team. I want to do well for my state.”Malhotra wants to follow the footsteps of her Idol Shubman Gill -do well in the U -19 World Cup, score a pile of run in domestic cricket and then, if everything goes well, it will be clear.
