Youngsters Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Musheer Khan showed great camaraderie as they joked around before Saturday, April 5’s encounter between the Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Rajasthan Royals (RR). Despite playing for different teams in the event, the two young players are having a blast.
Both RR and PBKS will have some young, talented players in their lineup for the season’s opening match at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur, Chandigarh. U19 players Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Musheer Khan are two of the youthful talents that have not yet participated in the event. Recently, the two young hitters were spotted chatting amiably at the event. When Musheer asked the 13-year-old cricket player for a bat, Suryavanshi responded in a famous way.
In a video posted by PBKS, Musheer questioned Suryavanshi, “De raha hai ki nahi tu balla pehle wo bata (Are you giving me the bat or not?)”
Aadmi ko dekh lo iss! Sharam nahi hai. “Bat maang raha hai,” says the junior player. See him! Dena chahiye bat Suryavanshi retorted, “He has no qualms about asking his junior for a bat when he ought to be giving instead.
