Former India cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar says it is “not OK” that he would have dropped Vaibhav Sooryavanshi during the India A series against Afghanistan A, while also noting that the 15-year-old’s current performance comes early in his India A stint. The articles cite Sooryavanshi’s scores in the series as 14, 44, 21 and 38, describing them as part of a small sample size rather than a fully established trend. Manjrekar’s remarks focus on selection and performance expectations in developmental squads, but the reporting also frames the discussion as a matter of timing—suggesting his form may improve as he plays more matches at this level. The coverage is based on Manjrekar’s evaluation of Sooryavanshi’s recent batting returns during the India A vs Afghanistan A games.
