Before the beginning of IPL 2025, scouts of multiple franchises were well aware of the 22-year-old. Sunrisers Hyderabad crashed in for the six-foot-tall batter, but unfortunately he was ruled out of the remainder of IPL 2025 after picking up an injury. If he continues his form, he can get more opportunities to enter into an IPL match in the future. His ability to face spinners is appreciable. The southpaw scored a century during the final of the 2024-25 Vijay Hazare Trophy, where Karnataka edged Vidarbha in a thriller to clinch the title in Vadodara.
