The 14-year-old cricketer Vaibhav Suryavanshi made a buzz with his debut in the IPL for Rajasthan Royals and became an overnight superstar with his maiden IPL century, which he hit in just 35 balls, the second-fastest century in IPL history. The Southpaw has the talent franchises look for, but what amazed the cricket fans was his age, which doesn’t seem to match the power he possesses.
Some also called Vaibhav Suryavanshi for faking his age, but the Southpaw’s father, Sanjiv Suryavanshi, clarified that his son went through the Bone test that the BCCI does to check the age of the players and came out positive for what he claimed to be his true age.
“When Vaibhav was 8 and a half years old, he first appeared for a BCCI bone test. He has already played India U-19. We don’t fear anyone. He can again undergo an age test.”
Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s father said
What Does The New Rule Say?
Each player now undergoes a bone test via the “TW 3 method,” and a “1 factor” is added to check his eligibility for the next season in the same age group. With the new rule coming into the picture, players at the U-16 level will undergo another bone test the next season in case the 1 factor rules him out in the previous year.
It is being done to have an exact age and make sure that no player loses due to arithmetical calculation rather than scientific calculation. This means that the bone age of a player has to be 16.4 or below in the following season in male cricketers and 14.9 or below in case of females for participation
BCCI official told PTI
In brief, if a male player’s bone age is 15.4 in the current season, he need not undergo another bone test in the next season as it will be 16.4, which is under the certified age. The same applies to female cricketers.
