Digvesh Singh

Digvesh Singh Rathi is an Indian cricketer known for his role as a mystery spinner. Born on December 15, 1999, in Delhi, he bowls right-arm leg-breaks and has quickly made a name for himself with his ability to hide his variations from the batter.

His journey to the top level picked up speed after impressive performances in local tournaments. Rathi formally made his domestic T20 debut for the senior Delhi team in November 2024 during the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. Before that, he caught the eyes of scouts with a stellar campaign in the Delhi Premier League, where he proved to be a difficult bowler to read and consistently picked up important wickets. Those strong performances earned him a well-deserved spot in the IPL.

The Lucknow Super Giants bought him during the mega auction ahead of the 2025 season. He made his IPL debut against the Delhi Capitals, and it was a highly memorable one. Along with his bowling skills, Rathi also gained widespread attention for his on-field antics. During the 2025 IPL season, he became famous for his signature 'writing in the notebook' celebration after taking a wicket. However, the match officials did not appreciate this aggressive send-off. He was fined on three separate occasions for breaching the code of conduct, which eventually led to a one-game suspension.

Despite the disciplinary fines, his value as a wicket-taking bowler remained clear to his team. Looking ahead to the 2026 IPL season, the Lucknow Super Giants showed continued faith in his abilities. He was officially retained by the franchise, giving him another exciting opportunity to showcase his skills.
