Win Projections to be updated soon
Young all-rounder Ramandeep Singh made his much-anticipated T20 International debut for India during the third T20I against South Africa at SuperSport Park in Centurion on November 13, 2024. The 27-year-old cricketer was honored with his debut cap by star all-rounder Hardik Pandya, marking a significant milestone in his career.
Ramandeep Singh Makes His India Debut
South Africa skipper Aiden Markram won the toss and decided to bowl first. At the toss, Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav announced Ramandeep’s inclusion in the playing XI, replacing Avesh Khan.
“It is okay. We have done well in the last two games while batting first. The boys have come out with clear plans and are executing it, I have been really happy with that. Just be clear, go out and enjoy yourself (the message from him and the management). These boys have made my job easier. We have one change – Ramandeep makes his debut. Avesh has done well for us but one of the two bowlers had to make a sacrifice,” Yadav stated.
Before the official announcement at toss, star all-rounder Hardik Pandya was seen giving the cap to Ramandeep Singh.
Ramandeep Singh’s Impressive Domestic Record
