Sooryavanshi fever grips Ireland ahead of possible India debut
The Vaibhav Sooryavanshi craze has well and truly spread beyond Indian borders, with anticipation building rapidly in Ireland over the 15-year-old’s potential senior debut in the upcoming T20I series.
Having already won over fans through his explosive IPL displays, Sooryavanshi could make his bow for India in the two-match series getting underway in Belfast on June 26.
Former India and Ireland cricketer MV Narasimha Rao revealed that interest around the teenager has triggered a genuine scramble for match tickets, with supporters travelling in from various parts of Europe just to catch a glimpse of him in action.

“I think they (local organisers) will have to put more seats because this stadium (Stormont ground) has only 7000 seats or something. Already, people from other parts of Europe like Paris etc want to come, hopefully, we can find a way to accommodate them,” Rao told PTI from Strabane, Ireland.
“So, I think it will be history, a momentous day if he makes his debut in Ireland. It was unexpected, and in the last 10 days, it’s really exciting here.”
