Vaibhav Suryavanshi, at 14 years old, became the youngest player to captain a Youth ODI match, leading India against South Africa. This historic achievement surpasses the previous record held by Pakistan's Ahmed Shehzad. Suryavanshi's captaincy was a temporary measure due to injuries to the regular captain and vice-captain, with both expected to return for the upcoming ICC Under-19 World Cup.
