year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi was named East Zone vice-captain for the Duleep Trophy to accelerate his development as a future India captain.
Ishan Kishan will captain East Zone, easing immediate leadership pressure on Sooryavanshi.
Selector Pravanjan Mullick said the move prepares Sooryavanshi for greater responsibilities, noting his previous roles as Bihar vice-captain and part of India's Under-19 World Cup leadership group.
Sooryavanshi's strong IPL performance with Rajasthan Royals and his rapid rise were key factors in the selection decision.
