Professional Life and IPL Career
Before we saw Nicholas Pooran play for the West Indies international team, he was already a famous name in the domestic leagues, especially in the T20 format. He was famous as one of the big hitters, and that’s how he got into the international team for the T20 format back in 2016. After doing super well for the West Indies team on the international level, he finally got the attention of the team management of IPL teams.
But it wasn’t until 2019 that he made his debut in the IPL for Punjab Kings. And in that first IPL season of his, he really made his name heard by playing some explosive and important knocks for the team. Now, he is part of the Lucknow Super Giants team, which he joined back in 2023, and they have retained him year after year. In the current IPL season, though, he is already off to THE most explosive start of his IPL career, like he is top on the Orange cap leaderboard with 377 runs and a 204.89 strike rate, which is just crazy high.
