Desk : The semi-final matches of Duleep Trophy have started. The match is being played between East Zone and Central Zone at the Center of Excellence ground in Bengaluru. In this match, young batsman Vaibhav Suryavanshi is once again in the headlines. Vaibhav, who had made his mark on the big stage of cricket at the age of just 15, had to assume the responsibility of captaincy on the very first day of the match.

Actually, the command of East Zone was in the hands of Ishan Kishan. However, Ishaan got injured during the match, after which he had to leave the field. Vaibhav Suryavanshi was chosen as the vice-captain in the East Zone team and he got a chance to lead the team in the absence of the captain.

Ishaan went out of the field after being hit by the ball

Let us tell you that in the 19th over of the match, Abhijeet Sarkar's ball hit the knee of Ishan Kishan's left leg. As soon as the ball hit, Ishaan appeared to be in pain. After this the physio reached the field and examined him. After some time, Ishaan was taken out of the field. After Ishaan's exit, Kumar Kushagra took over the responsibility of wicketkeeping, while Vaibhav Suryavanshi took charge of the team as captain.

Captaincy for the first time in first class cricket

This moment was special for Vaibhav Suryavanshi, because for the first time he got a chance to captain in first class cricket. Earlier, he had played the role of vice-captain in Bihar's Ranji team, but the responsibility of captaincy did not come to him.

As soon as Vaibhav got the command of the team, happiness was clearly visible on his face. Getting a chance to captain a big tournament like Duleep Trophy at such a young age is being considered a special achievement for his career.

Always keep an eye on Vaibhav

At the age of just 15, Vaibhav Suryavanshi has made his own identity in Indian cricket. Whenever he comes on the field, the eyes of cricket fans and experts are fixed on him. Vaibhav has shown his batting prowess in IPL also. Last season, he scored consistent runs with his bat and won the Orange Cap. Now him getting the additional responsibility of captaincy in Duleep Trophy shows his growing stature.

This responsibility given after Ishan Kishan's injury may have come due to circumstances, but this experience can prove to be very important for Vaibhav. In the coming times, the cricket world will keep an eye on his batting as well as his leadership abilities.
