Vaibhav Suryavanshi will be the deputy of the captain, Sakibul Gani, in the upcoming Ranji Trophy 2025-26. Young opener’s promotion to vice-captain shows the faith the Bihar Cricket Association (BCA) has in his leadership skills, even at the tender age of 14.

He amassed 133 runs in three innings, finishing as the second-highest run-scorer in the series and helping India clinch the series 2-0. Earlier this year, Suryavanshi’s form in England was equally spectacular, where he hit the fastest century in youth one-day cricket with 143 runs in Worcester.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s sensational year of batting
Despite his great potential, Suryavanshi has had limited experience in first-class cricket due to his Under-19 commitments. Since making his Ranji Trophy debut in the 2023-24 season at just 12 years and 284 days, he has played only five first-class matches.
Additionally, Vaibhav made history as the youngest player ever picked in the IPL at the age of 13. He finished the IPL 2025 season with 252 runs at a jaw-dropping strike rate of 206.55.
Meanwhile, the Bihar cricket team is looking to bounce back after a tough 2024-25 Ranji season. They failed to win a single game in seven games last season and suffered relegation from the Plate League. Bihar will kick off the Ranji Trophy 2025-26 season against Arunachal Pradesh in Patna on October 15, followed by their second match against Manipur in Nadiad on October 25.
Bihar Squad for Ranji Trophy 2025-26:
