From the streets of Bihar to the world’s youngest IPL millionaire, this story of Vaibhav Suryavanshi will inspire everyone.

News India Live, Digital Desk: Afternoon of 31 December 2025 When we are analyzing the games of the year, the most talked about is not the victory of Team India, but the name which has proved that skill is not dependent on any age. For Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who hails from Bihar, 2025 was the year which changed his life forever. Ranji in just 12-13 years and then a blast. Vaibhav’s journey may seem filmy, but there is a tough penance behind it. This left-handed batsman, who came into limelight by playing Ranji Trophy for Bihar, showed his first glimpse when he became one of the youngest first class players in the world. But 2025 made him a household name. We have all seen the historic auction of IPL 2025, where bids are placed on big foreign players. But when Vaibhav’s name came up in the IPL 2025 auction, everyone was stunned. Rajasthan Royals (RR) included this 14-year-old teenager in their team with a bid of Rs 1.10 crore. He became the youngest player ever to be sold in the history of IPL. It was not just a matter of money, but a triumph of his class and the faith that the coach and team management saw in his ‘pull shots’ and technique. Australia’s dominance in the Under-19s! If anyone thought that the glory was just the air of IPL, they answered it on the field. His brilliant century against Australia’s Under-19 team, scored in just 58 balls, is one of the most beautiful memories of 2025. In front of the bowling where experienced batsmen surrender, Vaibhav was playing shots with impunity like a seasoned and experienced player. The coordination of his footwork and eyes reminded even the veteran commentators of the old giants. The success of Vaibhav Suryavanshi, a new star emerging from the soil of Bihar, is a torch for crores of children who run after their dreams despite deprivation. In Bihar, where lack of infrastructure often hinders sports, Vaibhav’s father recognized his son’s potential and today his hard work is bearing fruit. Today the whole country is happy that the future of Team India is in very safe hands.
