Bista came through the age-group cricket structure in Mumbai, a system long regarded as one of the most competitive in Indian domestic cricket. He progressed through the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) ranks before being inducted into the senior state side.
Bista has appeared for Mumbai across the major BCCI domestic formats, including the Ranji Trophy (first-class), the Vijay Hazare Trophy (List A) and the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (Twenty20). As a top-order batter, he has been used in the opening and middle-order positions depending on team requirements.
Bista has been associated with IPL squads, where he has been picked as a domestic batting option. His selection reflects the broader pathway in Indian cricket through which Mumbai's Ranji-tested batters move into franchise tournaments.
As a domestic cricketer attached to one of India's most decorated state sides, Bista forms part of the wider talent pool that Mumbai cricket continues to supply to higher levels of the Indian game.
