Bihar's Vaibhav Suryavanshi became the youngest player to be picked by an Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise, joining Rajasthan Royals for Rs 1.10 crore. At just 13 years old, Suryavanshi is already hailed as a prodigy. The teenager made his T20 debut for Bihar in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy against Rajasthan last Saturday, scoring 13 off 6 balls before falling to Deepak Chahar.
Suryavanshi has also set international records, becoming the youngest batter to score a century in Youth Test cricket with a blazing 104 off 62 balls for India Under-19 against Australia U-19 in Chennai.

Veteran Bhuvneshwar Kumar Bags Rs 10.75 Crore
Out-of-favour India pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar proved his IPL worth as Royal Challengers Bengaluru bid Rs 10.75 crore for the seasoned bowler. With 300 wickets from 287 T20 matches and an economy rate below eight, the 35-year-old remains a valuable asset despite being out of national contention since November 2022.
The IPL’s demand for experienced Indian pacers ensured lucrative deals for bowlers like Bhuvneshwar, injury-prone Deepak Chahar (Rs 9.25 crore to Mumbai Indians), and Mukesh Kumar (Rs 8 crore retained by Delhi Capitals).
