Bihar u19

Though Rajasthan Royals: Though Rajasthan Royals’ campaign in IPL 2025 was a forgettable one, they did unearth a future star in young batting prodigy Vaibhav Suryavanshi. With his eye-catchy stroke-play and belligerent six-hitting ability, the teenager amassed 252 runs in seven innings of IPL 2025.

With the blazing 35-ball century against Gujarat Titans’ and a mature fifty against Chennai Super Kings fresh in everyone’s memory, 14-year-old Suryavanshi’s next big challenge will be to do well for India on their multi-format tour of England in June-July.

Ashok Kumar, who coached Suryavanshi in the Bihar U19 and men's senior teams, believes Suryavanshi can be fast-tracked into senior men’s T20I team in two years’ time, provided he works on his fitness and fielding.
