Career

[edit]

In October 2011, Chore scored an unbeaten 253 runs in the Col C K Nayudu Trophy, the highest individual score for Vidarbha at any level.[4] Chore made his first-class debut on 3 November 2011, for Vidarbha in the 2011–12 Ranji Trophy.[5] Later the same month, in his third first-class match, Chore scored his maiden century, with 157 runs against Services.[6] After playing in ten first-class matches, Chore moved to Oman in 2018 for more opportunities.[7] Chore went to Oman with two other cricketers, with the aim to play for the national team within three years,[8] and to play in ICC tournaments.[9] In 2020, Chore was named the best player in the Oman One-Day Premier League.[10]

In January 2021, Chore signed for North Down Cricket Club in Northern Ireland.[11] Prior to moving to Northern Ireland, Chore had played for the Oman A cricket team.[12] In July 2021, Chore scored 121 not out for North Down against Lisburn Cricket Club.[13] By August 2021, Chore had scored 478 runs without being dismissed, leading him to gain comparisons to Don Bradman,[14] and being called the "signing of the season".[15]

In February 2022, Chore was named the Club Male Player of the Year at the ITW Irish Cricket Awards.[16][17] On 12 May 2022, Chore played in first List A match for Northern Knights,[18] where he top-scored for the team in the fixture against North West Warriors in the fourth match of the 2022 Inter-Provincial Cup.[19]
