Jaipur, May 20 -- Former Australia opener Justin Langer has warned world cricket about the rapid rise of teenage sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi after the 15-year-old's stunning knock helped Rajasthan Royals chase down 221 against Lucknow Super Giants on Tuesday, with Langer admitting he had rarely seen such "breathtaking" batting in his 35 years in cricket.
