Mehar Cheema, born on 29th January 1994, has carved a niche in the world of cricket as a formidable wicketkeeper with a flair for the dramatic. His journey from the dusty neighbourhood pitches to the professional arena is a tale of determination and undeniable talent. Growing up in a cricket-loving family, Mehar's early years were steeped in the sport. From mimicking his cricketing idols in his backyard to representing the local club at just eleven, his passion was evident.

Cheema's professional debut came at the age of twenty, and it was nothing short of spectacular. A natural right-hand batsman, Mehar quickly proved his adeptness with the gloves as well. While he was initially recognised for his sharp stumping and lightning-fast reflexes behind the stumps, Mehar's bat soon began to talk. His versatile bowling skills, though less celebrated, added an intriguing dimension to his play, making him a valuable all-round contributor in tight situations.

A pivotal chapter of his career unfolded during the domestic championship of 2016, where Mehar's relentless spirit saw him not just captivate the audience with several match-winning knocks, but also lend crucial support to his teammates with several key dismissals.

Trading fifties and jaw-dropping catches with a fellow keeping master, Mehar managed to overshadow his competitor, etching his name in the annals of cricketing history.

Mehar's playing style is unorthodox yet profoundly effective. His stance at the crease and preciseness in shot selection are his towering strengths, and while he may lack the textbook finesse some players possess, his gritty resilience and strategic understanding often places him a step ahead. However, it’s his instinctive wicketkeeping, reminiscent of the greats, that often leaves spectators in awe.
