Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s Struggle in Second Matches Raises Questions Despite Early Promise

Vaibhav Suryavanshi, a prodigious talent known for the fastest centuries in IPL and Under-19 ODIs, has recently seen a dip in form across three second matches in multi-day series, averaging just 10.75 runs with a total of 43 runs scored. This contrasts sharply with his impressive performances in the initial matches of these series, where he boasts an average of 57.60 with 288 runs and two centuries.

In his six Under-19 red-ball games for India, Vaibhav's standout performances mainly came in the first matches of series, including a remarkable 218 runs at an average of 72.66 against Australia U-19. However, his form significantly dropped in subsequent matches, including the second games, where he managed scores of 23 and 20 against Australia, reflecting inconsistency in maintaining momentum.

Despite these second-match struggles, experts and coaches remain optimistic about Vaibhav, citing his unwavering temperament and potential to bounce back. His first-match centuries and record-breaking feats demonstrate his talent, leaving fans hopeful that he can regain form and continue his rapid ascent in Indian cricket.
