Akash Singh, a 22-year-old left-arm pacer from Bikaner, has emerged as a promising talent in Indian cricket. Despite representing three different IPL franchises and two domestic teams, he has found a home with Baroda, where he has impressed with his red-ball skills.
Singh's journey has been unconventional. He began his professional career with Nagaland before moving to Baroda as a guest player last season. Despite being labeled as a white-ball specialist, he has proven his mettle in the Ranji Trophy, taking three wickets for 19 against Mumbai.
"It's important for a player at my stage of career to not be billed as a white-ball specialist," Singh said. "So I am happy with my performance in that regard."
Singh's performance has not only impressed the Baroda team but also caught the attention of IPL talent scouts. His ability to bowl with the old ball on a turning track and execute his plans against a strong Mumbai team has earned him praise.
If Baroda can convert their first-innings lead into an outright win, Singh will feel like he has found a true home away from home. His versatility and determination make him a valuable asset to any team, and he is poised to make a significant impact on Indian cricket in the years to come.
