India's young batting sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi once again struggled in the fourth T20 international at Bristol. The 15-year-old, who has been touted as a future star, could only muster 15 runs before being dismissed. Facing England's fast bowler Jofra Archer, Sooryavanshi attempted to play an aggressive shot but mistimed it, sending the ball straight to Sam Curran at mid-off. Curran made no mistake, pouching the catch to send the young batter back to the pavilion. This latest failure follows a pattern of low scores for Sooryavanshi in the series, as he continues to adjust to international cricket. Despite his immense talent and potential, the teenager has found it difficult to convert starts into big scores. The dismissal left India in a slight spot of bother, but the team will hope to recover in the remaining overs. Sooryavanshi's performance highlights the challenges even gifted youngsters face when stepping up to elite competition.
