UKTARSH SRIVASTAVA (USA)
Uktarsh is the current captain of the USA under 19's and recently led them at the ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup in Zimbabwe and Namibia, scoring a superb 52 in the USA’s landmark victory over Scotland, securing their first Under-19 World Cup victory in 16 years
​
A right-handed top-order batter and right-arm off-spinner, Utkarsh is widely regarded as one of the USA’s brightest talents. In 2024, aged just 17, he made his full international ODI and T20 debuts for the USA announcing himself on the big stage with an impressive 67 from 63 balls on his ODI debut that also came against Scotland
​
As our first-ever signing from the USA and an Associate nation, we look forward to welcoming Utkarsh to The Applegarth in April and look forward to what promises to be an exciting and successful season
