Career

Vasisht is a domestic cricketer who represents Himachal Pradesh. A slow left-arm orthodox bowler and a left-handed batsman, he progressed through the state age-group side, turning out for Himachal Pradesh under-19 and under-22 teams before breaking into senior domestic cricket.

He made his first-class debut for Himachal Pradesh on 28 December 2014 against Assam in the Ranji Trophy.

Vasisht contributed to a notable period for Himachal Pradesh cricket: he was part of the squad that won the Lakshya Champions Trophy in February 2018, and he was in the Himachal Pradesh team that captured the Vijay Hazare Trophy in 2021–22 — the state's first title in that competition.
