In a controversial turn of events on Monday, a 15-year-old Indian prodigy, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, was involved in an on-field altercation with Sri Lankan players. The incident followed a dramatic Tri-Nation series match at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium, where India A narrowly lost to Sri Lanka A by seven runs.

During the Super Over, India A needed 19 runs, but fell short with Sooryavanshi and Shedge at the crease. Following the defeat, Sri Lankan players reportedly celebrated with excessive cheers and potential provocation.
Visibly dejected, Sooryavanshi confronted the Sri Lankan team, leading to a verbal exchange.

This loss marks India A's second in three games in the series.
