Born on 1st January 2001, in the cricket-loving heartlands of India, Santhoshkumar quickly fell under the spell of the sport. It was the dusty lanes and local grounds where he first honed his craft, often seen with a worn-out cricket ball and a tattered bat in hand, imitating the bowling actions of his heroes.

From his formative years, it was evident that Santhoshkumar possessed an extraordinary talent, especially with the ball. Teachers and peers would often note his impeccable line and length, something rarely seen in someone so young. His unwavering dedication led him to be scouted by a local club at the tender age of 15, where he exploded onto the local cricket scene, setting up a string of jaw-dropping performances. His knack for taking crucial wickets caught the eyes of talent scouts, paving his way to make a sensational professional debut at the age of 19 for the provincial team.
