The Punjab spinner made it to headlines back in 2018 for Mumbai Indians when he troubled the batters with his accurate leg-spin. He was bought by the Mumbai franchise for his base price of INR 20 Lakhs and was retained in 2019 for the same amount.
The Indian Premier League 2018 remained his life-changing season as he bagged 15 wickets in 14 IPL games, however, his likes were overshadowed by the presence of Rahul Chahar in the year 2019.
He played just 3 games for MI in 2019 and was replaced by Rahul Chahar and since then he is out of the team.
In the IPL 2021 Auction, he was picked by Rajasthan Royals (RR) for a price of INR 2 Crores but did not get an opportunity to showcase his skills.
He can be a good backup option for Rahul Chahar if Mumbai Indians (MI) fails to pocket him in the IPL 2022 Mega Auctions.
