Is Vaibhav Sooryavanshi following Sachin Tendulkar's 90s curse?
We have seen Sachin Tendulkar getting out in his 90s many times during his legendary career. Is Vaibhav Sooryavanshi following that pattern way too early in his career?

Sachin Tendulkar's seven dismissals in the 90s during his illustrious career has sparked speculation that young cricket prodigy Vaibhav Sooryavanshi might be following a similar pattern. The 15-year-old has been dismissed seven times while scoring in the 90s, a setback that came as early as the Duleep Trophy semi-final against Central Zone. In that match, Vaibhav scored 92 off 81 balls before being caught attempting a six. His seven dismissals in the 90s occurred in a short span of nine months.
Although some dismissals occurred while Vaibhav was attacking, the majority happened when he was trying to score. This has led to comparisons with Tendulkar's own 27 dismissals in the 90s. However, it is crucial to note that the young cricketer has broken other records as well. Vaibhav became the youngest player to score a century in the Duleep Trophy at the age of 15 years and 157 days, narrowly missing out on breaking Tendulkar's record by just eight runs.
