How many runs did Vaibhav Suryavanshi score against Pakistan A today?
Even though he could not repeat his UAE heroics, Vaibhav still made a substantial impact. He smashed 45 runs off 28 balls and gave India A a flying start yet again.
His knock helped India race past 90 inside 10 overs. However, his innings ended when he tried to go big down the ground against Sufiyan Muqeem.

The shot didn’t get the elevation he wanted, and the long-on fielder took a sharp catch right on the rope. It was a huge moment in the match as India lost a key batter who looked set for another special knock.
He has been in brilliant form in 2025, whether for India A or even in the IPL, and today’s innings again showed why everyone is talking about him. It was not a big or record-breaking knock, but it carried the same confidence and spark that make him stand out.
