Young Cricketer Surpasses Rohit and Kohli

In a remarkable achievement, rising Indian cricketer Vaibhav Suryavanshi has created history by topping Google’s list of Most Searched Cricketers in India for 2025. The young talent has overtaken senior superstars like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, marking a major shift in public interest.

Vaibhav shot to fame through the Indian Premier League (IPL), where his fearless performances and youthful energy drew massive attention. His rapid rise in domestic cricket has prompted fans across the country to search for every detail about him—leading to his No. 1 position on Google’s search charts.

Following Vaibhav, Priyansh Arya secured the second spot, while Abhishek Sharma stood third. Sheikh Rasheed took the fourth position with increasing popularity among cricket followers.

On the women’s side, Jemimah Rodrigues also witnessed a surge in searches thanks to the buzz surrounding the 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup.

Surprisingly, despite the hype around IPL 2025 and the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the names of icons Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma did not appear in this year’s most-searched rankings—indicating a generational transition in cricket fandom.
