New Delhi: Will 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi make his India debut on Saturday? This is the biggest question ahead of the second T20I against England at Old Trafford in Manchester.The young batsman is waiting for his first Indian cap despite being called up after the exciting season of IPL 2026. Now, a cryptic Instagram post has only added to the excitement among fans.Sooryavanshi shared a picture of himself donning the blue Indian jersey on his Instagram account with a simple two-word caption: “A new chapter.” The post quickly went viral, with many believing it could be a hint that its long-awaited India debut is just around the corner.The youngster has been one of the most consistent players during India’s test campaign in England. He has spent many hours in the net and has looked good in contact with the bat. Although the team management has repeatedly said that they don’t want to rush the youngster, Sooryavanshi continues to impress with his fearless approach.The left-handed opener had an excellent season in IPL 2026 with Rajasthan Royals. He scored 776 runs at an incredible rate of 237.30, earning his maiden India call-up.
However, he is still waiting for his world premiere. Sooryavanshi was not included in the two T20 series against Ireland and also missed the opening T20I against England, which ended in vain as rain hampered England’s chase.With the series still open, all eyes will be on the Indian team selection. And after the post of the “new chapter” of Sooryavanshi, the excitement surrounding its possible release has grown exponentially.
