आज बचाएगा तो वैभव ही! शॉर्ट बॉल ट्रैप तोड़ने की तैयारी में सीने पर चोट झेल गया ‘बेबी बॉस’ – vaibhav sooryavanshi special practice india vs england 3rd t20 trent bridge bmsp
The India-England T20 series has now reached such a point where Team India’s hopes are pinned on a 15-year-old batsman. Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who hit Joffra Archer for a six on the very first ball while making his debut in Manchester, had shown in a short innings of just 10 balls that he is not afraid of the big stage. Now, before the third T20 to be held at Trent Bridge on Tuesday, if the Indian and foreign media are keeping the maximum attention on any player, then it is Vaibhav.
For India, this contest is like ‘do or die’. The first match was washed out in rain, the second has been won by England. In such a situation, if India has to make a comeback in the series then it needs a blast in the beginning and the same is expected from Vaibhav.
Not afraid of short ball, working hard on it
England’s biggest plan is going to be short pitch bowling against Vaibhav. However, this strategy has also been adopted in IPL.
Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) also tried to trap Vaibhav with a bouncer, but the plan backfired. In the same match, Vaibhav had scored 97 runs in 29 balls and completely destroyed the strategy of the opposing team.
Now England can also play the same gamble. That’s why Vaibhav is practicing short balls the most in the nets.
We are increasing the difficulty ourselves… so that the match becomes easier.
Vaibhav’s method of preparation is also very different. He is not just taking normal throwdowns, but is making special demands from throwdown expert Raghu.
He told Raghu to come ahead of the popping crease and throw down from a very short distance, so that the ball reaches him more quickly and his reflexes can be truly tested.
The ball coming from a short distance reaches the batsman in the blink of an eye. With such practice, both the player’s reaction ability and technique of playing short ball improves.
Ball hit on chest in special practice
During this difficult practice, there came a moment when Raghu’s sharp throwdown hit the ball directly near Vaibhav’s chest/ribs. Vaibhav sat on his knees for some time. The matter of relief was that the injury was not serious. He picked up the bat again and continued practicing in the nets. The video of this incident is also going viral on social media.
This picture shows how seriously this teenage batsman of India is preparing for the third T20.

Why are hopes pinned only on glory?
Leaving aside the first match which was washed out by rain, India has lost three consecutive T20 matches. For the first time after 2021, Team India has reached such a situation. Under the leadership of new captain Shreyas Iyer, the team is experimenting with new combinations, but the results have not been as expected.
In such a situation, the responsibility of giving the team an explosive start in the powerplay will be on Vaibhav and Abhishek Sharma. If Vaibhav shows the same aggressive style in the first six overs, a glimpse of which was seen in his debut, then the entire trend of the match can change.
There may be a change in Team India
Indian team can make changes in bowling. Fast bowler Prince Yadav may get a chance in place of Ravi Bishnoi, who proved expensive in the last match. Captain Shreyas Iyer had an injury on his hand, but there is every possibility of him playing.
How will the Trent Bridge pitch be?
Trent Bridge was once considered a batsman’s paradise, but in the last few years, bowlers have also started getting help here. This season the average score of the first innings in T20 Blast has been around 165 runs. The weather is expected to be clear, so another high-scoring match is expected.
Now the question is only one – what 15 year old Vaibhav Suryavanshi Will he be able to shore up India’s sinking series with his bat? To know this answer, the eyes of the entire cricket world are fixed on Trent Bridge.
