Abhimanyu Easwaran is one of India’s most prolific and consistent domestic openers in recent years. A technically sound right-handed batter, he has built a formidable red-ball career, underlined by an exceptional first-class record and a reputation for patience, temperament, and big hundreds.

Having made his first-class debut for Bengal at the age of 18, Easwaran has since gone on to represent them in over 100 first-class matches, amassing more than 7,600 runs at an average nearing 49. His ability to convert starts into meaningful innings is highlighted by his 27 centuries and 29 half-centuries, including a highest score of 233. Notably, since 2021, Easwaran has scored nearly 3,000 runs at an average of over 61, making him the most consistent red-ball opener in Indian domestic cricket during that period.

Easwaran's recent form has been nothing short of extraordinary. In the 2024–25 domestic season alone, he produced a stunning run of scores: 191 (Irani Cup), 157, 116, 127, and a double century (200*)**, firmly staking his claim for a national call-up. This purple patch reinforced his growing stature as a dependable top-order presence capable of absorbing pressure and grinding out match-defining innings.

In List A cricket, Easwaran continues to be an asset, scoring over 3,850 runs at an average of 47, with 9 centuries and 23 fifties to his name. Though not primarily known for his white-ball exploits, he has shown capability in the T20 format as well, scoring 976 runs at a strike rate of nearly 129, including a century and five fifties across 34 matches.

A regular performer for India A, Easwaran has played 26 matches, scoring 1,662 runs at 42.61, with six centuries and five half-centuries. His notable performances include a five-wicket haul on debut against New Zealand A and consistent showings on the Bangladesh A tour. He also ranks second only to Gautam Gambhir in terms of centuries and aggregate runs for India A.

Despite strong numbers and consistency, Easwaran is yet to break through to the senior Indian team. With established names ahead in the pecking order, his patience mirrors his batting—disciplined, determined, and quietly persistent. That said, his name continues to surface whenever discussions turn to India's red-ball future.

Off the field, Easwaran is known for his focus and work ethic. Originally from Dehradun, he trained at the Abhimanyu Cricket Academy (founded by his father) before moving to Kolkata to pursue professional cricket. His early sacrifices and single-minded pursuit of excellence are reflected in the maturity and composure he brings to the crease.

As he now approaches the peak years of his career, Easwaran is not only targeting a long-awaited Test cap but also eyeing opportunities abroad, particularly in County Cricket, where his compact technique and mental resilience make him well-suited to English conditions.
