Prayas Ray Barman (born 25 October 2002) is an Indian cricketer.[3] He made his List A debut for Bengal in the 2018–19 Vijay Hazare Trophy on 20 September 2018.[4] He was the leading wicket-taker for Bengal in the 2018–19 Vijay Hazare Trophy, with eleven dismissals in nine matches.[5]

In December 2018, he was bought by the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the player auction for the 2019 Indian Premier League (IPL) for 1.5 crores.[6][7] He made his Twenty20 debut for Bengal in the 2018–19 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy on 21 February 2019.[8] On 31 March 2019, Barman made his debut for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL against Sunrisers Hyderabad, becoming the youngest player to debut in the IPL at that time. At 16 years and 157 days, Barman broke the previous record held by Afghanistan spinner Mujeeb Ur Rahman, who had debuted for Kings XI Punjab at 17 years and 11 days in 2018. The record was officially confirmed by Guinness World Records. In that debut match, played at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad, Barman bowled four overs for 56 runs without taking a wicket as RCB faced David Warner and Jonny Bairstow's opening partnership of 185 runs, the highest first-wicket partnership in IPL history at the time. With the bat, he contributed 19 runs off 24 balls and added a 51-run seventh-wicket stand with Colin de Grandhomme[9]. The record stood until 19 April 2025, when Vaibhav Suryavanshi debuted for Rajasthan Royals at age 14.[10][11] He was released by the Royal Challengers Bangalore ahead of the 2020 IPL auction.[12]
