Young Vaibhav Suryavanshi<\/a>, who was expected to make his debut in the Ireland tour, will now have to wait for the moment, and so would fans wanting to watch the teen sensation in India colors. The 15-year-old did not find a place in the playing XI in the second T20I as well, being played in Belfast on Sunday, June 28.<\/p>\n While Suryansh Shedge and Prince Yadav<\/a> received their caps for this game, Vaibhav Suryavanshi missed out. None of the two debutants included the young left-hander.<\/p>\n This became the first instance where Suryavanshi was part of the squad but did not feature in a single game in the series. Fans were left disappointed once again, eager to see the superstar in action for India.<\/p>\n “Ye BCCI wale Vaibhav Sooryavanshi ke naam pr Tickets bech rhe h,uske naam pr stadiums bhar rhe h,usi ke naam ke promo cut rhe h. Log keval sooryavanshi ke liye match dekh rhe h. lekin BCCI and management use playing 11 me select nhi kr rhi. Matlab hypocrisy ki bhi seema hoti h\ud83d\ude02(BCCI is selling tickets in the name of Vaibhav Suryavanshi, filling stadiums in his name, promos are being made in his name. People are watching this match only for Suryavanshi. But BCCI and management are not selecting him in the playing 11. There is a limit of hypocrisy as well),” a fan wrote on X.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n <\/template><\/p>\n “Playing any format of cricket without Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is like – Argentina playing without Messi. Portugal playing without Ronaldo. Mithun Manhas Gautam Gambhir Shreyas Iyer Ajit Agarkar should immediately be sacked,” another fan tweeted<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n A fan also went on to state that Vaibhav Suryavanshi should have played ahead of Tilak Varma, who is in the side only because he is the vice-captain.<\/p>\n “It\u2019s a shame that we are forced to play Tilak Varma who has become more like a slow ODI batter in T20Is just coz he is made VC Not sure on what basis he is made a VC Vaibhav should have played in place of Tilak,” the tweet<\/a> read.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Below are some other reactions from fans on X – <\/em><\/p>\n India<\/a> won the toss and opted to bowl first. After suffering a shocking 34-run defeat in the first T20I, the Men in Blue find themselves in a must-win position here to level the series.<\/p>\n With Vaibhav Suryavanshi being left out of the playing 11 in the Ireland tour, all eyes will now be on the England tour. India will play five T20Is in England<\/a> in July during their multi-format white-ball tour.<\/p>\n It remains to be seen whether the 15-year-old will finally make his international debut in the England series. He has been in exceptional form, having smashed a 29-ball 94 against Sri Lanka A in the Tri-Nation series recently.<\/p>\n Suryavanshi also had a brilliant IPL 2026 season. He emerged as the leading run-getter, amassing 776 runs from 16 games, averaging 48.50 at a strike rate of 237.30 with a hundred and five half-centuries.<\/p>\nWill Vaibhav Suryavanshi debut in England?<\/h2>\n
