Sidhant Srikanth is a promising bowling all-rounder for the Singapore national cricket team, known for his right-arm medium-fast pace and sharp cricketing instincts. Still in the early stages of his international journey, Sidhant brings a rare blend of youthful energy, discipline, and emerging leadership potential to the side. A fast-bowling option with the ability to swing the ball and contribute handy runs down the order, he is quickly becoming one of the standout names in Singapore’s cricketing setup.
Born on February 6, 2001, in Singapore, Sidhant grew up immersed in sport. From his early days in local academies, he showed a natural inclination toward fast bowling—his tall frame, high-arm action, and strong work ethic made him a standout among his peers. He was a regular performer at age-group levels and soon advanced through the national youth pathway, representing Singapore in Under-19 competitions and junior-level tournaments with success.
Sidhant made his T20 International debut for Singapore in 2022, marking a significant milestone not just for himself, but for a national side looking to infuse fresh talent into their core. Though still gaining experience on the global stage, he has handled the pressure of international cricket with maturity. Whether operating with the new ball or coming in during the death overs, he offers flexibility to the bowling unit. His control over line and length, combined with natural swing, makes him a reliable option in tight matches.
As a batter, Sidhant is still developing, but he has already demonstrated the ability to strike the ball cleanly and play supporting cameos in the lower middle order. His clean hitting and temperament under pressure have turned him into a viable tail-end contributor—one who can rescue innings or finish strongly when needed.
Sidhant's athleticism extends to the field, where he consistently delivers in high-pressure situations. Agile, sharp, and alert, he’s often positioned in the outfield, patrolling the boundary with confidence. His awareness of game situations and ability to remain calm in crunch moments reflect a player well beyond his years.
His performances in tournaments like the ICC Men's T20 World Cup Asia Qualifier and domestic tournaments have earned him accolades and the trust of team management. Singapore’s strategic aim to develop young, multi-skilled cricketers is well served by players like Sidhant, who represent both the present and the future of the team.
