Not much was known about Kumar Kartikeya Singh, the left-arm spinner who plays for Madhya Pradesh in domestic cricket. He was a late entrant into IPL 2022 after being drafted in as an injury replacement for the Mumbai Indians. But since then, Kartikeya`s career and credentials have only grown.
Spotted by Mumbai Indians talent scouts, Kartikeya was signed on for IPL 2022 as a support bowler, offering him a chance to hone his skills and play at the highest levels of cricket that he loved. He left his home and family nine years ago and returned to them last month, to an emotional reunion.
