Born on 4th September 1990, Iman Gurung’s journey from the lush fields of his native land to the international cricketing arena is nothing short of inspiring. Iman picked up his first cricket bat at the tender age of eight, instantly falling in love with the sound of leather meeting willow. Growing up, he was infatuated with the rhythm of the game, often mimicking his heroes under the bright afternoon sun.

Gurung's formal introduction to competitive cricket began in local youth leagues, quickly catching the eye with his aggressive right-handed batting style and his knack for reading the game. His talent didn’t go unnoticed, and soon he found himself playing for the local club, where his performances were as eloquent as they were impactful. It didn’t take long before he was making headlines, scoring centuries against the best and brightest, his fearless approach at the crease reminiscent of some of cricket’s greats.

His professional debut came at the age of 21, and it was a spectacle to behold; a match that announced his arrival on the grand stage. From that point on, he was a regular fixture in the team's batting lineup, his right-hand bat often guiding his team to victory in pivotal matches. Iman was revered for his technique—solid yet fluid, combining traditional strokes with modern aggression. His right-arm fast-medium bowling, although not his primary skill, provided occasional breakthroughs, adding a delightful unpredictability to his arsenal.

In the years that followed, Gurung’s name was etched into cricketing folklore. He played a crucial role in his team's championship victories, with his performance in the finals often becoming stories of legends. Records tumbled as he conquered one milestone after another, including the highest number of centuries in a single domestic season—a testament to his unparalleled consistency and flair.

Among the rivalries that encapsulated his career, it was his tussles with a neighbouring regional team that stood out most—a contest that brought out the best in him, with crowds eagerly awaiting these titanic clashes. His finest moment, perhaps, was during an international series decider, where his innings of sheer grit and determination turned the tides, earning him a standing ovation and reaffirming his status as a game-changer.
