Bihar have announced their squad for the first two rounds of the 2025-26 Ranji Trophy season, with promising young opener Vaibhav Suryavanshi named vice-captain. The team will be led by batter Sakibul Gani as the domestic season kicks off on October 15. Bihar will begin their campaign against Arunachal Pradesh at the Moin ul Haq Stadium in Patna. Suryavanshi's elevation to the leadership group comes on the back of a stellar run of form for India Under-19 during their recent tour of Australia. 

His standout performance came in the opening four-day match in Brisbane, where he blazed his way to a 78-ball century. Over the three innings he played, Suryavanshi amassed 133 runs, finishing as the second-highest run-scorer of the series. Earlier this year, Suryavanshi made headlines at the IPL 2025, becoming the youngest centurion in men's T20s. He ended the season with 251 runs.

Bihar Ranji Trophy 2025-26 squad: Piyush Kumar Singh, Bhashkar Dubey, Sakibul Gani (capt), Vaibhav Suryavanshi (vice-capt), Arnav Kishor, Ayush Loharuka, Bipin Saurabh, Amod Yadav, Nawaz Khan, Sakib Hussain, Raghvendra Pratap Singh, Sachin Kumar Singh, Himanshu Singh, Khalid Alam, Sachin Kumar
