Rajat Patidar is a top-order batter from Madhya Pradesh who made a name for himself with a stunning century in the IPL 2022 eliminator. Playing for Royal Challengers Bengaluru, he smashed an unbeaten 112 off just 54 balls against Lucknow Super Giants. That innings turned heads and changed his career. Before that, Patidar had already shown his class in domestic cricket. He scored a hundred on his first-class debut and later helped Madhya Pradesh win the Ranji Trophy in 2022 after 69 long years. He made his ODI and Test debut for India in late 2023. Patidar missed the 2023 IPL season due to a heel injury but remains a reliable batter in the top order.
