About

Dhruv Jurel emerged as a prodigy in age-group cricket and first grabbed widespread attention during the 2020 Under-19 World Cup, where India finished as runners-up. Strong performances across two impressive domestic seasons followed, earning him an IPL contract with Rajasthan Royals ahead of the 2023 season. Tasked with the demanding role of a finisher, Jurel made an immediate impact, highlighted by a match-winning knock against Punjab Kings in his debut IPL campaign.

His rapid rise continued in February 2024 when he was selected for India’s Test squad and handed a debut in Rajkot, replacing an out-of-form KS Bharat. Jurel rose to the occasion, scoring a vital 90 in just his second Test to help India secure a hard-fought series victory against England. He carried that momentum into the 2024 IPL season with consistent performances, prompting Rajasthan Royals to retain him ahead of the mega auction.
