PM Modi Applauds Teen Sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s IPL Heroics

Prime Minister Narendra Modi commended the 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi for his undeniable talent. During the inauguration of the Khelo India Youth Games on Sunday, PM Modi expressed his admiration for the boy from Bihar’s Samastipur and acknowledged his achievement at such a young age.

Vaibhav slammed the second-fastest century in IPL off 35 deliveries against Gujarat Titans and became the youngest centurion in T20s. Though the last few games have not gone his way, he is still recognised as one of the finest talents in Indian cricket.

“I have seen in the IPL, the son of Bihar, Vaibhav Suryavanshi spectacular performance. At such a young age, Vaibhav has set such a great record. There is a lot of hard work behind Vaibhav’s performance,” said PM Modi.

“To bring his talent to the forefront, he has played many matches at different levels. The more you play, the more you will shine. Competing in matches and competitions as much as possible is very important. The NDA government has always given it the highest priority in its policies.”

“The government’s focus is on giving our athletes the opportunity to play new sports. That is why the Khelo India Youth Games included Gatka, Kho-kho, Malkhambh and Yogasana. In recent days, our athletes have performed very well in many new sports like Wushu, Lawn Balls, and Roller Skating,” PM Modi added.

He also discussed the inclusion of sports in education policy.

“There is a new national education policy, in which we have made sports a part of mainstream education. The aim of this policy is to create excellent sports professionals along with good players in the country.
“My young friends, we know that sportsmanship plays a very important role in every aspect of life. We learn team spirit in the field of sports. We learn to move forward together,” he said.
