Mandeep Singh

Mandeep Singh is a powerful top-order batter with extensive experience at the highest levels of Indian and domestic cricket, currently plying his trade in UK club cricket. A former Indian international and IPL star, Singh benefits from local accommodation through his British wife based in Newcastle-on-Tyne.

Over a decade-long career, Singh has played three T20 Internationals for India in 2016, appeared in 100+ IPL matches representing franchises such as RCB, KKR, Kings XI Punjab, and Delhi Capitals, and featured prominently for North Zone in the Duleep and Deodhar Trophy. He is a Punjab cricket stalwart, having amassed over 10,000 runs in more than 300 games.

Despite initial resistance from his athletics coach father, Singh rose to prominence early, serving as vice-captain for India's U19 team at the 2010 World Cup. Since then, he has built a prolific domestic record with 20 centuries and a highest score of 235. His first-class average hovers just below 50 across 106 matches, boasting nine Ranji Trophy campaigns with averages over 50. Recent form includes impressive tallies such as 696 runs at 69.60 (2019/20), 358 runs at 179 (2021/22), 551 runs at 45.91 (2022/23), and 517 runs at 103.40 (2024/25).

Alongside his batting prowess, Singh is an effective spinner, proficient in both leg-spin and off-spin. His bowling has been particularly impactful in white-ball cricket, where he has taken 16 wickets at 33.43 in List A and 16 wickets at 27.93 in T20 matches.

Although overlooked for national recall despite consistent performances and a first-class average exceeding 65 since his last T20I, Singh was a valuable asset for Yorkshire Premier League's Hull Zingari, scoring 382 runs at 54.57 in late 2024. He has since settled in superbly at Castle Eden CC in the North East Premier League, amassing 2,283 runs at 57.08 with four centuries and 53 wickets at 22.91 across two seasons there. He was even better in 2026, hitting 1,231 runs at 68.39—three hundreds, nine fifties, and a high score of 133—plus 22 wickets at 26.91, building on a strong first season of 1,052 runs at 47.82 and 31 wickets at 20.06.
