Former England spinner Monty Panesar questions whether 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi can make a successful transition from T20 cricket to Test matches, saying he does not yet have the necessary technique.
Panesar raises the concern during a discussion on a podcast with Michael Clarke. In that conversation, Clarke challenges Panesar’s assessment, saying he believes Sooryavanshi has the potential to develop into a player capable of performing across formats. The two commentators therefore take differing views on the same prospect—Panesar is skeptical about the technical step up to Tests, while Clarke is more optimistic about the youngster’s long-term development.
