Vaibhav Sooryavanshi made headlines with his stunning batting abilities. He left everyone baffled with his batting at such a young age of 15. While questions over Sooryavanshi’s age started circulating over the last year or so, Australian great Brett Lee admitted that these doubts continue to dominate discussions in other parts of the world too.

“He is incredible. Everyone offshore, away from India, asks the question if he’s 15. ‘Is he 15?’ is probably the biggest talking point around the world. I don’t care how old he is. If he’s 15, fantastic, but if he’s 17 or 18, who cares? This kid can play cricket. He has been such a great find for India, and he’s going to go on to achieve bigger and better things,” Lee said on the Beer Biceps YouTube channel.

“He has already lit up the IPL in such a short space of time. That 97 he got (vs SRH), he was up against Aussie bowlers. They were bowling gas, and he was hooking them off his nose. He is playing proper cricketing shots and has power that he finds from somewhere. It won’t be his form or batting; it’ll only be his mind. He still has to be a kid. Let him be a kid and don’t put too much pressure,” the Aussie legend further added.

Lee, who last played for Australia way back in 2012, shared how he would have approached bowling to Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, considering his exceptional six-hitting skills as well.

“If someone was a good hooker or puller of the ball, I used to love that because then it becomes a contest. So of course I would go into the boardroom, go upstairs and have a look. I’ll put one on his badge and see what he does with it. He might hook me for six, but it won’t discourage me from giving him another one,” Brett Lee concluded.
