South Zone captain Tilak Varma engaged in an intense verbal exchange with 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi during the Duleep Trophy final, drawing criticism from fans.
The sledging incident occurred shortly before Sooryavanshi's dismissal, with the teenager appearing rattled by the veteran's aggressive tactics on the field.
The match officials are expected to review the incident, as the exchange has sparked a debate about the conduct of senior players toward young talent in domestic cricket.
