[WATCH]- Vaibhav Suryavanshi Departs For 14 On Debut After Sharp Stumping By Jos Buttler

Vaibhav Suryavanshi endured a brief stay at the crease on his T20I debut, unable to make a major impact. The 15-year-old managed 14 runs from 10 deliveries before being dismissed by Will Jacks after India opted to bat first at Old Trafford Cricket Ground in the second T20I of the series.

His innings began brightly, with two impressive sixes showcasing his attacking intent, but he could not build on the promising start. England’s spin attack eventually found a breakthrough when Jacks cleverly delivered a flat ball outside off stump after noticing the opener advance down the track in the fifth over.

Attempting to cut the delivery, the left-hander was beaten completely, allowing wicketkeeper Jos Buttler to execute a sharp stumping and hand the hosts their first wicket. Suryavanshi lost his balance while trying to get his foot back inside the crease and ended up falling to the ground.

With his T20I debut, Vaibhav Suryavanshi created history by becoming the youngest Indian to feature in international cricket. In doing so, he surpassed the long-standing record of Sachin Tendulkar, who made his Test debut at the age of 16 years and 205 days.

Double Blow For India As Vaibhav Suryavanshi And Abhishek Sharma Fall Early

India made a strong start with the bat but suffered a double setback near the end of the powerplay, losing both openers, Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Abhishek Sharma, in quick succession. Suryavanshi was the first to fall, departing in the fifth over.

Abhishek continued his fine form with another valuable contribution, scoring 43 off 24 deliveries before getting out on the final ball of the powerplay. He attempted to clear the midwicket boundary off a low full toss from Sam Curran but failed to time it cleanly, with Tom Banton completing the catch in the deep.

India ended the powerplay at 65/2. The five-match series remains level at 0-0 after the first T20I was abandoned due to rain, with India having posted 189/7 in their 20 overs.
