Biography

Swapnil Singh is a left-arm orthodox Indian spinner who has been around the domestic circuit for a long time but has had limited opportunities to showcase his skills adequately. Born in Rae Bareilly in Uttar Pradesh on 22nd January 1991, he decided to begin his professional career playing for Baroda and made his first-class debut in 2006, just a few days before his 15th birthday.

His T20 debut came in 2007 in the Inter-State Twenty-20 Tournament, and in 2008, he was named in the 25-member probable India U19 squad traveling to Malaysia for the ICC U19 Cricket World Cup but could not make it to the final team. He was also part of the Mumbai squad for the inaugural Indian Premier League season and played his first List A game for Baroda later that year.

He started to get more games during the 2014-15 Ranji Trophy season and was a crucial player for the side in the following year. His outstanding performance in the 2015 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, where he registered six wickets for just 19 runs, got him into the spotlight and piqued the interest of the scouts. He was soon awarded a contract by the Punjab franchise for the 2016 Indian Premier League.

He remained with them till 2017 and played just five games over the season without making much of an impact. He returned to the grind of domestic cricket and began to work hard while performing consistently for Baroda. He was the leading run-scorer for them in the 2017–18 Ranji Trophy with 565 runs in six matches and soon his batting began to take prominence.

In 2018, he was named in the India Blue squad for the Duleep Trophy. He switched to Uttarakhand for the 2021–22 domestic season and his recent improvement in the shortest format of the game prompted the Lucknow franchise to recruit him for the 2023 Indian Premier League. Spending much of the season on the bench, he only had the opportunity to make appearances in two games.

Subsequently, Lucknow decided to release him ahead of the 2024 Indian Premier League auction. However, Bengaluru showed faith in him during the auction process. With recent respectable all-round performances across all three formats for Uttarakhand, he finds himself in the twilight of a long and industrious domestic career.
