The cricket world stands captivated by his audacious stroke-play but for 14-year-old , stuff like first-ball sixes is a 'normal thing' as he remains unfazed by the grandeur of the stage.

“It was a normal thing for me. I have played Under-19 for India and also at the domestic level, where I have hit first ball sixes. I was not under pressure to play out the first 10 balls. In my mind I was clear that if the ball comes in my radar, I will hit it,” Suryavanshi told the T20 website.

“Yes, there was an international bowler [in front of me] and the stage was big, but I was just playing my game,” he added.
