Vaibhav Sururyavanshi Age Controversy: Bihar cricketer Vaibhav Suryavanshi performed a bang in IPL 2025. He won everyone’s heart with his fearless batting. Vaibhav redeemed the opportunities in Rajasthan Royals under the coaching of Rahul Dravid and captained by Sanju Samson. In the mega auction, the team bought him for Rs 1.1 crore. He then scored 252 runs in 7 matches at an average of 36 and a strike rate of 206.55. He scored a century and a half -century.

There was a ruckus during IPL

During the IPL, Vaibhav was also in the discussion about his batting as well as his age. Some people described him as 13 years and some told him 14 years old. Even some have said 15 years old. It was discussed in the entire IPL. After seeing this dispute, the Board of Control for Cricket in India has taken big action. He has decided to conduct an additional bone test at the junior level as part of a new initiative to catch over-edge players.

We are not afraid of anyone: Vaibhav’s father

Vaibhav’s father Sanjeev Suryavanshi responded to these allegations and told PTI, “When Vaibhav was 8.5 years old, he gave BCCI bone test for the first time. He has already played India Under-19. We are not afraid of anyone. He can conduct age test again. “An old video went viral on social media during the IPL, in which Vaibhav was allegedly heard as a separate date of birth. However, no one knew the truth of this clip.

What is the new BCCI rule?

According to the current method, each player undergoes a bone test for age determination through the Tw3 method and a ‘1 factor’ is added to determine his eligibility in the same age group in the next season. However, according to the new rule, under-16 level players will have to undergo another bone test to decide the eligibility in the next season, if the ‘1 factor’ excludes them last year.

Big information surfaced

A BCCI source told PTI, “This is being done to achieve accurate age and to ensure that no player lost due to arithmetic calculations instead of scientific calculations. This means that a player’s age should be 16.4 or less in male cricketers in the next season and 14.9 or less for participation in women’s case.
