India men’s cricket team’s head coach Gautam Gambhir said the 15-year-old batting prodigy Vaibhav Sooryavanshi will have to wait for his opportunity in the senior national team, stressing that players who have performed consistently over the last few years will remain ahead of newcomers. Speaking at the post-match press conference after India’s 127-run win over Afghanistan in the third and final T20I at the Arun Jaitley Stadium here on Thursday, Gambhir said Sooryavanshi would get a longer run when his chance arrived.
