Watch: Fans throng around Vaibhav Sooryavanshi at Chepauk Stadium during Duleep Trophy Final
On Day 1 of the Duleep Trophy final between East Zone and South Zone at Chepauk Stadium, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi stole the show for fans. The 15-year-old batsman led East Zone to a quick start, building an impressive 44-run opening partnership with Abhimanyu Easwaran. Sooryavanshi showcased his talent by hitting five fours and a six, including a standout shot off Mohammed Siraj in the seventh over.
South Zone's bowlers had a disappointing outing, with the final score standing at 14-1-96-0. Despite the promising start, neither Easwaran nor Shikhar Mohan managed to reach the century mark. However, captain Ishan Kishan's unbeaten 111 and Kumar Kushagra's 63 set the stage for a memorable opening day, with the team looking to secure their first Duleep Trophy since 2012-13.
