The left-arm pacer has enjoyed moderate success in his cricketing career so far. Apart from his stint with Team India, the player also is a regular feature in the Indian Premier League. He has also proved his mettle as a captain as he led from the front to guide Saurashtra to a historic Ranji Trophy win in 2019-20.
The lanky fast bowler will also take the field for the Rajasthan Royals side in the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2021), as the franchise retained him ahead of the IPL auction. Former Kolkata Knight Riders captain Dinesh Karthik was one of the notable names to congratulate the 29-year-old after his wedding function. The veteran wicketkeeper took to his Twitter account and joked that the wicket-taker's wicket is finally down. Netizens relished Karthik's witty comic and lauded him for his sense of humour.
