‘He has to wait’: Gambhir’s message to Sooryavanshi as teenage sensation watches on

India coach Gautam Gambhir stressed patience for young Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's senior team opportunities. Established players' consistent performances will always precede new talent entering the squad. Gambhir found Sanju Samson's exclusion from the England series a difficult coaching decision. Samson repaid faith with half-centuries, while Abhishek Sharma achieved a record score. The team prioritized the World Cup winning opening combination for consistency.
