Jos Buttler and Stuart Broad heap praise on Vaibhav Sooryavanshi

Reflecting on his performance, former Rajasthan Royals player and one of the finest batters of all time, Jos Buttler opens up on Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s impressive batting performance in the tournament.

“RCB won the trophy, and they are the story of the IPL. But Vaibhav is nearly the IPL this year. He is the story of the tournament. MVP, 700-plus runs, and at a faster strike rate than everyone else. It was amazing to watch,” Buttler said.

Not only Jos Buttler, star pacer Stuart Broad also applauded Vaibhav Sooryavanshi for his brilliant batting performance. This is not it. Broad also added that he is ready to make his debut for team India and set to become a global star.

“I said in my last podcast that I have not seen a player become an international star without having played international cricket. In England, people are talking about him. They may not even be IPL fans, but they are saying, ‘Oh my God, have you seen Sooryavanshi? He’s unbelievable.’ He has become a world star. Not like Kohli or anything, but he is probably the first player to become a world star without playing international cricket.“
