Another milestone for 14-years-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi as he becomes Bihar’s vice-captain for upcoming Ranji Trophy

Bihar will take on Arunachal Pradesh in their Plate League season-opener at the Moin-ul-Haq Stadium here from October 15. The announcement of the squad was made by the Bihar Cricket Association late on Sunday.

Bihar were relegated to the plate league after failing to log a single win in the previous Ranji season. Suryavanshi made his Ranji Trophy debut at the age of 12 in the 2023-24 season.

He later became the youngest (13) to bag an Indian Premier League (IPL) contract and has also been a part of India Under-19 tours of England and Australia.

Suryavanshi is unlikely to play the full season for Bihar as he will be in contention to be a part of India’s squad for the Under-19 World Cup to be held in Zimbabwe and Namibia early next year.

Bihar Squad:

Piyush Kumar Singh, Bhashkar Dubey, Sakibul Gani (c), Vaibhav Suryavanshi (vc), Arnav Kishor, Ayush Loharuka, Bipin Saurabh, Amod Yadav, Nawaz Khan, Sakib Hussain, Raghvendra Pratap Singh, Sachin Kumar Singh, Himanshu Singh, Khalid Alam, Sachin Kumar.
