Abishek Porel is a young left-handed wicketkeeper batter from Bengal who has made a name for himself in the Indian Premier League. Playing for the Delhi Capitals, Porel went from being a backup player to a regular in the top order over two seasons. His breakout moment came in IPL 2024 when he smashed 32 runs off just 10 balls as a late substitute. That innings changed his career. He went on to play all 14 matches that season and finished as Delhi Capitals’ third-highest run-scorer with 327 runs at a strike rate above 159. Even though IPL 2025 was quieter for him, the team showed their faith by keeping him for IPL 2026 at a price of 4 crore rupees.
