Cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar has said that 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is not yet ready for a leadership role, describing the prospect as "too early for him." Tendulkar's blunt assessment came during a recent interaction where he discussed the development of young players in Indian cricket.

Sooryavanshi, a promising talent, has been earmarked for future responsibilities, but Tendulkar emphasized the importance of allowing young cricketers to mature before burdening them with captaincy duties.
