Sarvesh Dhage

Born on 22nd August 1996, Sarvesh Dhage's rise to prominence in the cricketing world is nothing short of remarkable. Hailing from a small town in Maharashtra, India, Sarvesh’s journey began on dusty local pitches where he honed his skills with a modest cricketing kit gifted by his father. His natural flair with the bat didn’t go unnoticed for long. By the age of 12, Sarvesh was already a vital part of his school cricket team, consistently churning out impressive performances against older and more experienced players.

Sarvesh burst onto the professional scene as a right-handed batsman and right-arm fast-medium bowler, a dual role that initially sparked curiosity and later, admiration. Making his professional debut at 19 with the Maharashtra Ranji team, he quickly cemented his spot as a reliable middle-order batsman. His breakthrough came during the Ranji Trophy season of 2016-17, where he showed remarkable composure and relentless determination. His ability to dig in and pile on runs in tense situations caught the attention of national selectors.

Throughout his career, Sarvesh has been instrumental in several significant matches, but one of the notable performances was against their southern rivals, Karnataka, in the 2018 Ranji Trophy semi-final. A gritty century under pressure led his team to a historic win, earning him widespread acclaim and laying the groundwork for a fierce rivalry with Karnataka that fans eagerly anticipated each season.

Sarvesh’s batting style is characterised by a solid technique and an array of elegant shots, especially his signature cover drive which often leaves spectators in awe. Although primarily known for his batting prowess, his right-arm fast-medium bowling gave his captains valuable depth and versatility. His knack for breaking partnerships when least expected proved invaluable time and again.

One of the standout moments of his career came during the 2022 domestic T20 league final, where his unbeaten 75 off 48 balls guided his team to a thrilling last-over victory. This innings not only added a championship title to his accolades but also solidified his reputation as a match-winner.

Today, Sarvesh Dhage continues to inspire aspiring cricketers with his dedication and flair. His path from small-town obscurity to cricketing stardom is a testament to his unwavering passion for the game and his enduring desire to leave a lasting impact on cricket.
