The main interest in the final will be on Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. The 15-year-old has already become one of the most talked about players in the cricket world after an amazing IPL 2026 season and a call-up to India’s top T20I squad.
However, his journey to Sri Lanka has been very difficult. Dambulla’s slow pace did not allow him to dominate the way he did during the IPL. In four innings, he has scored 14, 44, 21 and 38. Those numbers show promise but not the big innings many expected. The latter gives another opportunity to the young person to show his talent. Along with questions about his batting, there will also be interest in how he will respond after what happened to Sri Lanka’s Vishen Halambage in the team’s previous meeting.
