Anmolpreet Singh (born 28 March 1998) is an Indian professional cricketer who plays for Punjab. He made his IPL debut on 19 September 2021 against Chennai Super Kings.[2] He was bought by Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 2023 Indian Premier League auction for Rs.20 Lakh.[3]

Early life

[edit]

Singh was born on 28 March 1998, in Patiala. He is the son of former India Handball captain Satvinder Singh.[4]

Growing up in a household deeply rooted in sports, Anmolpreet shares familial cricket connections with his cousin, Prabhsimran Singh, and younger brother Tegpreet Singh, both carving their paths as domestic cricketers.[5]

Anmolpreet's journey into the world of cricket commenced at the age of 5 when he would accompany his cousins to the cricket field, eagerly fetching balls for them, prompting his father to enroll him in a cricket academy in Patiala in 2005.[6]

Coached and mentored by Munish Bali, former assistant coach of the world cup-winning India under-19 cricket team of 2008, Anmolpreet Singh emerged as a promising talent. He set records with the Punjab under-14 and under-16 sides. Notably, he showcased his skill by amassing over 1000 runs at the under-19 level in the Cooch Behar Trophy for two consecutive years. [7]

Career

[edit]

Singh played two matches in the 2014–15 season of Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy for Punjab and three matches in the 2015 India Under-19 Tri-Nation tournament.[8] In December 2015 he was named in India's squad for the 2016 Under-19 Cricket World Cup.[9]

He made his first-class debut for Punjab in the 2017–18 Ranji Trophy on 6 October 2017.[10] In November 2017, in his third first-class match, he scored 267 runs in the first innings for Punjab against Chhattisgarh.[11] He was the leading run-scorer for Punjab in the 2017–18 Ranji Trophy, with 753 runs in five matches.[12]

In July 2018, Singh was named in the squad for India Blue for the 2018–19 Duleep Trophy.[13] In October 2018, he was named in India A's squad for the 2018–19 Deodhar Trophy.[14] His consistent performances in the Deodhar Trophy resulted in his call-up to the India A limited-overs squad for their tour of New Zealand.

In December 2018, he was bought by the Mumbai Indians in the player auction for the 2019 Indian Premier League.[15][16]

In August 2019, Singh was named in the India Blue team's squad for the 2019–20 Duleep Trophy.[17][18] In October 2019, he was named in India C's squad for the 2019–20 Deodhar Trophy.[19] In February 2022, he was bought by the Mumbai Indians in the auction for the 2022 Indian Premier League tournament.[20]
