Yuvraj Singh

** Updated profile for 2025 coming soon... **

Yuvraj Singh, much like his legendary namesake, is an explosive cricketer making waves in Indian domestic cricket. Since the return of cricket post-COVID, Singh has been a stand-out performer for Railways across the three formats.

A genuine seam bowling all-rounder, Singh starred on his Ranji Trophy debut (v Karnataka) in February 2022 taking 5-93 (27.3) in the first innings before a brisk 48 (68) from the lower-middle order. He would then take 5 wickets and score 46 (55 balls) in his second match (v Puducherry), before a barnstorming maiden first-class century (103 off 133 balls) in his third (v Jammu and Kashmir).

Singh had already impressed in T20 cricket taking 6 wickets at 14 during the 2021/22 Syed Mushtaq Ali campaign, before following up with 11 wickets at 10.54 during the 2022/23 edition.

It’s fair to say Singh is making quite a name for himself on the domestic circuit, and this summer (2023/24) has continued to shine with 9 wickets at 20.55 in the Vijay Hazare Trophy (List A), before bagging figures of 5/10 & 2/21 against Chandigarh in the opening round of the Ranji Trophy (FC).

A sharp, and skilful opening bowler who is both a technically astute, and explosive middle-order bat, Singh really does have quite the future. Recommended by legendary Railways, and CricX client, Mahesh Rawat, Singh is looking to progress in the game.

In a view toward his development, Singh headed abroad to play for Bradninch and Kentisbeare last summer. He impressed (714 runs at 37.05 & 36 wickets at 15.81), and courtesy of this the Club has re-signed the Indian all-rounder for a second Devon Premier League stint in 2024.
