It certainly looked like the young batter was waiting to face one of the most experienced and best bowlers in cricket.

He has been consistent with the bat, ensuring a senior team call-up anytime soon after the IPL 2026. The 15-year-old batter received praises from many former cricketers and players who saw him bat, not just in the IPL but in other tournaments and series as well.
