Rahul Dravid doesn't want microscopic attention on 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi following his path-breaking hundred in the IPL but having said that, the Rajasthan Royals head coach knows it is something that he can't control.

Having received a barrage of questions on Suryavanshi in the Star Sports Press Room on Wednesday, Dravid realised that the cricketing world will not be leaving the talented teenager alone from now onwards.

"I think it won't be possible to completely sort of avoid him from the experience that is around him," said Dravid when asked about protecting the youngster from the hysteria around him.

"I would love to say that we should not shower him with that much attention. Maybe I am being naive as that it is not going to happen," he added.
