Archit Dhupar

Archit Dhupar, born on 12th June 1990, emerged from the bustling streets of Delhi, where the clatter of cricket bats on dusty pitches resonates like a second language. As a child, Archit would often sneak away to play cricket, obsessively imitating every move of his idols. It was here, amidst the chaos, that his journey from a curious youngster to a professional all-rounder began—a journey steeped in passion, resilience, and a relentless pursuit of excellence.

By the age of 16, Archit had already made waves in Delhi’s local cricket circuits, his adaptable batting style hinting at a promise few could ignore. Though he remained humble about his achievements, it wasn’t long before selectors took notice, and in 2010, he made his professional debut in domestic cricket. This was the start of a career that would witness not just substantial runs and wickets, but moments that would etch his name in cricketing folklore.

Archit’s batting is characterised by an adaptability that leaves bowlers guessing. Whether it’s the steady calm required in Test matches or the explosive flair needed for T20s, Archit has the uncanny ability to switch gears with ease. His unbeaten knock of 160 during the 2015 domestic championship not only tightened his grip on the game but also led his team to a crucial victory, showcasing his knack for thriving under pressure. His versatility extends to his bowling as well, with seam deliveries that can zip or loop depending on the pitch's mood—a skill that’s foxed many a seasoned batsman.

Over the years, Archit has participated in numerous riveting rivalries, none more so than against the formidable Mumbai team, where his spirited performances often turned the tide. It was during one such rivalry in the 2017 season that he shattered records, claiming a remarkable 8 wickets in a single innings— a feat that remains a testament to his indomitable spirit and technical prowess.

Beyond numbers and accolades, Archit’s impact on cricket is defined by his presence on and off the field.
