Abhinandan Singh

Abhinandan Singh, a promising right-arm medium-fast bowler, is steadily making his mark in the cricketing world. Known for his ability to swing the ball both ways, Singh has been a vital asset in domestic circuits, particularly in the Uttar Pradesh T20 League. With an impressive bowling average of 17.06 and a strike rate of 13.60, Singh took 15 wickets in just 10 innings for the Lucknow Falcons in that competition, underlining his knack for breakthroughs. His standout performance came against the Kanpur Superstars, where he claimed 4 wickets for just 26 runs, showcasing his potential as a match-winner.

Despite being relatively new to the professional scene, Singh's performances caught the attention of cricket enthusiasts and selectors alike. His ability to maintain a tight economy rate, even in the shortest format, speaks volumes about his control and precision. His journey in the Uttar Pradesh T20 League has been marked by consistent performances, including two three-wicket hauls, which were crucial to his team's success.

With the 2025 IPL auction on the horizon, there was speculation about his potential inclusion in one of the franchises, and so it happened. Bengaluru showed faith in the young pacer, securing his services for INR 30 lakhs, marking a major chapter in his career.
