And we have seen him playing in the IPL as well, where he first made his debut in IPL 2023 for the Gujarat Titans team. Though in IPL 2025, he is actually part of the Chennai Super Kings team, and so far, like halfway through the tournament, he is actually the leading wicket-taker for CSK. His life and career stories are pretty interesting, so let’s take a close look.

Personal Life
Well, first of all, many of you may be a little surprised to know that as of 2025, Noor is just a 20-year-old playing for his international team as well as in other cricket leagues in the world, and surely, IPL is one of them. And just like any other talented or skilled cricketer out there, Noor also started playing cricket when he was way too young, like, he used to always play with his elder brothers. Despite being one of the top wicket-taking bowlers in the world right now, we do not know much about his personal life as he likes to keep things private. Though he is not married yet, and certainly does not have kids.
Professional Life
Can you even believe the fact that it was just in 2019 when Noor made his first-class debut for the Kabul Region in Afghanistan? Like, he was playing the Ahmad Shah Abdali four-day tournament when he was just a 14-year-old. Just like that, after playing some of the cricket leagues there, he was finally picked up for the Under‑19 Cricket World Cup in 2020. That’s where he impressed everyone who saw him for the first time. So no wonder, he made his debut in T20 International for Afghanistan in 2022, and DOI, and the rest is just history, though he still has a long way to go.
IPL Career
Back in IPL 2023, Gujarat Titans went for him with a base price of just 30 lakh rupees, and that year, he was the youngest overseas buy. As that IPL season went on, he quickly became famous as the mystery spinner, and played for 3 consecutive seasons for GT. Now in IPL 2025, Chennai Super Kings have picked him up with a price tag of INR 10 crore rupees, and currently he is the leading wicket-taking bowler for the team.
