Swastik Samal is a right-handed opening batsman and handy seam bowler who represents Odisha in Indian domestic cricket. Known for his blend of technical stability and aggressive shot-making, he has progressed steadily through the age-group ranks—representing India Blue Under-19s and East Zone—to establish himself as a mainstay in Odisha’s senior side across all formats.

In List A cricket, Swastik made history during the 2025–26 Vijay Hazare Trophy, becoming the first batter from Odisha to score a double century. His remarkable 212 off 169 balls against Saurashtra stands as the joint fourth-highest individual score in the tournament’s history, alongside Sanju Samson, and underlined his ability to combine endurance with high-impact scoring.

Swastik’s First-Class (Ranji Trophy) game is built on patience and temperament. He recently registered a career-best 169 against Nagaland, followed by a crucial 79 against Jharkhand in January 2026, playing key roles in stabilising the innings under pressure.

In T20 cricket, Swastik focuses on maximising the powerplay. He has recorded a T20 century (105) and currently operates at a strike rate in excess of 160, highlighting his ability to shift gears early and set the tone at the top of the order.

A genuine high quality player who comes highly recommended and has now targeted a season in the UK to show off his talent. Swastik would be an outstanding UK professional for any club seeking a top end batter who can contribute with the ball and entertain members this summer..
