Basil Thampi is a seasoned pace bowler who has been a dominant force in Indian domestic cricket for over a decade. Since his Ranji Trophy debut in 2014/15, the Kerala spearhead has played more than 200 matches across formats and featured in 25 IPL games for Gujarat Lions, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and Mumbai Indians.
Winner of the IPL Emerging Player award in 2017, Thampi is now closing in on 300 domestic wickets at an impressive average just under 30. He has regularly been on the fringe of international honours, having represented India A and multiple Duleep Trophy sides prior to COVID.
A mainstay for Kerala, Thampi is highly regarded by former Indian quick and current Kerala bowling coach Tinu Yohannan, who praises his strength, deceptive round-arm action, and ability to reverse the old ball.
With a couple of first-class fifties to his name, Thampi is also a capable lower-order batter. Now looking to make his first overseas club appearance, he has set his sights on the 2026 season—offering any club a high-class, proven quick with all-round value.
