Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, MS Dhoni and Sachin Tendulkar (PTI Photos) NEW DELHI: Even at the age of 15, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is attracting attention usually reserved for cricket’s biggest stars.The teenage batsman has become one of the most prominent names in the IPL thanks to his fearless batting, clean sixes and confidence against the top bowlers.Former India pacer Mohit Sharma believes the youngster’s popularity is unlike anything he has seen from MS Dhoni.“There are two such players… before that there was one player, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, for whom, no matter which of the ten franchises, which of the ten grounds you go to, you will see one name everywhere, the same aura, the same love for him,” Sharma said on Cricbuzz.

I’ve only seen two players like that,” he said.Former Indian cricketer Murali Karthik also compared the teenager’s rise to Sachin Tendulkar’s early glory.“I mean seriously, he’s on a whole other level. I can’t understand how God gave him something so special in just one lifetime,” Karthik said.“So for a fifteen-year-old kid to be so world famous… he’s like a real prodigy, he’s a genius, that kid, at just fifteen years old.With his performances and popularity increasing, Sooryavanshi is fast becoming one of the most talked about young stars of Indian cricket.
