Vaibhav Suryavanshi, the 14-year-old left-handed batting prodigy, has been appointed vice-captain of Bihar for the opening rounds of the 2025-26 Ranji Trophy, with Sakibul Gani leading the squad. The tournament is set to begin on Wednesday, October 15.

The announcement from the Bihar Cricket Association (BCA) came just two days before the season’s start, following the last-minute inclusion of a selector to form a two-member panel, in line with BCCI directives. The BCA has been asked to finalize a five-member selection panel soon.

Suryavanshi’s Form and Future Prospects

Suryavanshi has been in red-hot form for India U19, scoring 133 runs in three innings against Australia U19 in the recent multi-day series. Earlier, he amassed 355 runs in five matches against England U19 at a staggering strike rate of 174.01.

Reports had suggested the youngster might move out of Bihar due to interest from other state associations. However, the BCA is keen to retain him, especially as they aim for a return to the Elite division.
