Professional Life and IPL Career
Devdutt played professional cricket for Karnataka in India’s domestic tournaments. He made his first-class debut playing in the Ranji Trophy and continued scoring runs in his one-day games and T20 matches. Along the way, his excellent performances in age-group cricket saw him land a place in the Indian under-19 team.
In the year 2020, Devdutt signed with Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League. He scored lots of runs and even won the award for the Emerging Player in his first season. He went on to play for Rajasthan Royals, later Lucknow Super Giants, after which he joined Royal Challengers Bangalore again in 2025. He is known for his smooth batting style and the calmness he takes into the field. And this year, once again, we’re seeing his different form in the format for the RCB team. Just like how we saw him in IPL 2021 and 2022, he once again seems to be in form and has already hit 230 runs with a 154+ strike rate. A lot of people are saying that RCB’s team looks balanced this year, especially in the batting department, and that’s because there are players like Devdutt and Rajat Patidar who give that strength to the middle order. And because there are big hitters in the lower order, it is no wonder that Devdutt is playing fearlessly this year.
