Dega Nischal is an absolute run machine who set the Ranji Trophy alight last summer.
The right-handed opening bat finished inside the top 5 run-scoreers in the 2024/25 Ranji Trophy with 848 runs at 94.22 with 5 centuries. Following his move from Karnataka to Nagaland last summer, Nischal struck scores of 149 (v Arunachal), 49 & 154 (v Manipur), 3 & 94 (v Goa), 116 (v Sikkim), and 145 & 105* (v Mizoram).
Nischal, who represented India U19s, played 18 first-class matches for Karnataka between 2017/18 and 2023/24. During his first two seasons in Ranjji Trophy cricket, he impressed, hitting four centuries, a highest score of 195 and season averages of 44.50 (2017/18), and 36.47 (2018/19). However, limited game time post COVID for Karnataka prompted his move to Nagaland this summer, where he has excelled.
Whilst known for his batting from the top order, Nischal is a more than useful spinner who is a regular bowler in division cricket. Bowling predominantly leg spin, he also has the ability to mix it up with finger spin / off cutters.
The talented Indian is at the height of his game and is now eager to showcase his talent abroad over the next few years. Given his current form, and all-round ability, we are looking forward to watching Nischal excel for Mayfield in the Sussex League this summer.
