IPL 2024:

Who is Angkrish Raghuvanshi, KKR's Star Performer vs DC

Born on June 5, 2005, in Delhi, Angkrish Raghuvanshi is a batting all-rounder.

The 18-year-old is a right-hand top-order batter and bowls left-arm orthodox spin.

He recently made his IPL debut with the Kolkata Knight Riders in the Mar 29, 2024 match vs RCB at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.

He showcased his batting prowess in KKR's April 3 match vs DC, by scoring 54 off 27, forming a scintillating 104-run partnership with Sunil Narine.

After Wednesday's remarkable performance, the youngster has induced curiosity regarding him among cricket lovers.

Angkrish Raghuvanshi made his List A and T20 debut for Mumbai during 2023-24.

He also represented India at the 2022 U19 World Cup and ended as the highest run-getter of the tournament.

Despite recording a two-ball duck against England in the final, he finished fourth on the overall scorers' list, accumulating 278 runs from six innings.

Thus, his parents' taking a tough call of sending him to Mumbai at an early age, to pursue his career, proved to be the best decision ever.
