Vaibhav Sooryavanshi Picks Up 2 Wickets
Sooryavanshi, who had a brief stay at the crease with the bat earlier in the match, quickly made amends with an impactful bowling performance. Operating in the 28th over of North East Zone's second innings, he provided a 'double delight' by dismissing Kishan Lyngdoh and Imliwati Lemtur in quick succession.
Double Strike with the Ball
The first breakthrough came on the second delivery of the over when Sooryavanshi bowled a three-quarter-length delivery outside off, tempting Kishan Lyngdoh to step out. Lyngdoh, attempting to hit big, lost his shape and sent a leading edge towards cover, where substitute fielder Denish Das completed a safe catch.
Just three deliveries later, Sooryavanshi struck again. He delivered a good-length ball around off stump which Imliwati Lemtur defended from the crease. The ball took a thin outside edge, and wicketkeeper Ishan Kishan reacted sharply to complete a crucial catch, giving Sooryavanshi his second wicket in the over.
This double strike underscored Sooryavanshi’s ability to influence the game beyond his primary batting role, showcasing his evolving all-round capabilities at a tender age.
