India's Sooryavanshi draws confidence from maiden fifty

July 24 : Harare continues to be a happy hunting ground for Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, but India's batting sensation is not taking success for granted after producing another match-winning knock at the venue in the first Twenty20 International against Zimbabwe.The 15-year-old, fast-tracked into international cricket after he dazzled in the Indian Premier League, smashed 50 off 19 balls as India chased down a target of 126 with 40 balls to spare to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series.Earlier this year, the opener hammered 175 off 80 balls in the Under-19 World Cup final against England at the same Harare Sports Club ground, securing a comprehensive Indian victory."I love the vibe here," the soft-spoken Sooryavanshi told BCCI.tv of the venue, which will host all three matches of the series.
